It's going to be a bit confusing since there are still points from his last trip from STT to NYC with Peter.

All good on Blue Note, but very little wind. Right now we are sailing at 4knt in 6knts of wind with the spinnaker up. Early this morning was a bit better and the spinnaker was giving us 6-7 kts speed.
The lure is out for catching tuna, but so far no luck, so lunch was a simple sandwich, hoping that the afternoon will bring a catch of the day in the evening menu. Otherwise pasta or the pork-chop on the grill.
