It’s been calm enough to skip rocks out here and we probably would have except for the rollers that kept coming through. About every 15 to 20 minutes a set of 3-4 waves would pass under the boat. They were traveling left to right and would roll the boat 10 to 15 degrees several times each way.

 

Finally by 7:30 the wind picked up enough to sail and we were able to turn off the motor. Winds are out of the NNE so we should be able to turn east around 1PM today.
