Just had a clear night sailing under the stars at 20 knots on a reach, following seas, and cruising at 8 knts. We had a 170 kt run over the past 24 hrs and had a great time. We continue to take turns on the helm and are having a great friendly compition on whose the fasted helmsman. Right now Tim is winning with a 9.2 but i had lead for awhile as well. I'm sure i will be winning it back soon.
Now it is sunny. Im in my undies drying off down below. No seasickness while typing on the computer in 8 ft seas and jamming out to the leptons. Pretty sweat. In a couple of hrs we are likely to fly the spinnaker again. We are looking forward to catching that overgrown windsurfer also known as Nancy.
We are supposed to have our halfway dinner tonight but are not even close to half way. Instead of awesome Vietmanesse food we will have salmon burgers, Cole slaw, and chocolate covered fruit. Hopefully we will also get some fresh tuna.
