The last 6 hours into St. John were blessed by a nice 15kt of East wind that allows to sail right past Jost van Dyke.
We picked a mooring in Leinster Bay under a clear bright night with a near full moon.
We celebrated with a gin an tonic andolives before going to sleep amazed of the silence.
No water washing on the hull no bouncing of waves.

A wonderful passage with my dear Italian friend and sailor Riccardo.
Just a small ops with the ripped main sail. But after near 30,000 nm sailed since I bought the sail in Tampa Florida in 2010
a small mistake can happen. It only means I will need more sailing time to learn to be more careful.


Full report on passage with plots to follow.
