No, we do not see 20 kts of wind yet...
 
But we do have Westerly winds,   about 13-14 kts...
It is nice to see  the boat finally progressing nicely   -- about 7+ kts   -- and in a  right direction.
 
But as always -- that is not going to be for a long...  The contition not to cross the 42N latitude will force us to go to East, rather then to NE...  And it seems like at the speed we are doing now -- we would need to change the course in about 6 hours...
 
It is beautiful morning here --  clear blue skies,  not as cold as previous days... ( Probably, I'm getting used to the temperature a bit,  and it helps too).
 
Everything is fine on board.  Only a bit more time needed every morning to wake up again... ;-) But that is normal, and I wish myself this 'waking up challenge' --  to be my biggest one!
 
I hope second coffee will do it, and it is ready right now!
