Good morning this morning. It is 6:30 am and the sun has risen and, Bandido is right in the heart of the trade winds path. The wind speeds have been about 20kts and, we've been averaging 8 kts speed. The waves are big and nice and Bandido is surfing them like a true surfer.
Before we were doing 150 miles a day and now 250 a day more or less. I can already smell the mojitos. Our current heading is 223 degrees, southwest bound, still riding the trade winds.
From where we are, there are 1,205 nautical miles to our destination. I am
couting on Bandido to get us there soon enough so we enjoy the island as well.We have been at sea for almost 17 days now and loving every second of it.
