Island Kea II

Steve and Katrin Everett

Sun 11 Apr 2010 19:22

08:25S 125:24W

We had a bit more wind last night - up to 15 kts and were sailing along nicely at about 6-7 kts.

This morning, the wind has died down, only about 8-10 kts and we are sailing at about 4-5 knots - closer to 4 which is quite slow progress.

having looked at the grid file, it looks like we may get a bit more wind tomorrow - fingers crossed.

Still not able to go directly 100% down wind so going a bit north and then a bit south!!
