Moxie - Beck Family Adventure - Day 17

Day 17

Moxie - Beck Family Adventure

Mike, Denise, Asia and Aranya Beck

Wed 7 May 2014 20:06

10.2S135W
05 May 2013, Noon LT (UTC -8)
WIND 10 SOG 5 COG 240 RUN 132
2 days to go

We are doing pretty well but I thought I'd have a gripe anyway because we could be doing better and it is annoying me. Without a spinnaker we are having to cut angles downwind which is adding 20 miles every day for around 6 days now.
