Dany II...oops, sorry for the mileage mistake
yesterday...the distance I gave was to our next way point off the N end of
Sumatra, not Langkawi...we are however, now over 1/2 way there with only 682 mi.
to go...so far the winds are still in the 15-20knt. range, & we're still
averaging about 7knts....today was a "bean bag day"...nice and comfortable with
the waves staying outside of the cockpit where they belong...so far not too much
rain, but we'll be expecting lots when we get closer to Sumatra &
Thailand...the fish are definately winning on this passage, we've lost 2 due to
broken leaders!!...we haven't given up tho!...time to go watch the
sunset...they're starting to improve now that we've got some interesting clouds
on the horizon...ciao...D2 & crew
