So now you know what we had for dinner...with a side of peaches. The wx has declined, we've been beating into 15-20 + knot seas head on for hours and hours. Trying to sleep is like being strapped on to the back of one of those mechanical bulls being put on level 2 then untie the strap and try to balance while laying on your side or back...sound fun? (read...insomnia). Looks like we will need to make Eureka for fuel as our best made leg for the last day was at 3.5 knots, we usually do 5-6 kts. So we will see what mr. weather brings us in the morning...till then it's hold on and don't leave anything out! I've been downloading grib weather files but they are not always accurate as we are finding out now...this business was only to last a day or so... I'm reading yet another book- Go Lawnboy!-
