Strong following winds with 203m waves.Sunny
hot.
We have all been helming today as batteries a
little low after a slower rolly night.Still a good moon and the seawas
electirified by plankton.Plenty of flying fish but only one made it
onboard.
Now 50nm off the ABC islands which we cannot
see.Should pass Punya Galinastomorrow night and then into the Gulf of
Panama.
Spoke to the skipper of a yankie tanker last night
who kindly altered course to avoid sinking us.
