Long day today with a couple sail changes a little rest and I'm off shift now after doing a couple "crazy Ivan's" in the fluky wind and getting myself all hot-and-bothered.
There were many instances of perfect sailing conditions. We even reached with the Spinnaker for awhile today (that I launched from the bow wearing shorts). No more wildlife sightings except for a bird that tried to land on our masthead.
The team is working overtime to figure out how to get out of this light air. Bob has banned the term "naviguesser," but he doesn't seem to mind the equally accurate term of "navimoron"
Tasty food again today- Mahi Mahi dish and your new zealand boat-baked cookies are hitting the spot. No leftovers.
We have a couple of first for this trip:
First Shooting star: Capt'n Jimbo
First Whale Tail: Andrew
First Man overboard: Nobody
First Sunburn: Andy's Lips
Thanks for watching.
