We are glad to report that as of 23.00 local last night we have been sailing along at 8-9 knots. The wind finally backed more into the SSE and made it possible to lay the course.
 
Great sailing conditions with 12-15 knots of breeze and calm seas. The wind has picked a bit more this afternoon, along with the sea's,  but also has backed a touch more as per predictions so all is well.
 
At 14.00 local we have 360 miles to go to Santa Cruz and should be in on Friday sometime if these conditions hold.
 
Cheers for now
