There is no wind.  We are bobbing up and down on the swell with the boom crashing synchronously.  Over night we managed just over 1 knot but now we are virtually at a standstill.
 
Yesterday we hit a big squall with serious rain.  When we came out of that the wind died and has not recovered.  Al went for a swim behind the boat and dived down to check the underneath.  He found a boilersuit wrapped around the keel!

It wasn’t there on Monday when Rupert checked. 
 
We all dived in after him – warm and deep blue water.  We haven’t moved much since.
 
So here we are:

We have no idea when we will get in – Wednesday the 11th seems the earliest.
 
We are at 19 45.708 N, 46 47.654 W
