Weather overnight was moderate NW crew getting
their sea legs. The morning brought westerlys and the evening was sunny
southerly.... not so great for our course as we are heading south into it.
That said we are holiding our course and making seven knots ETA A Coruna should
be wednesday. The Cadets quickly established the errors in their sextants
and took some sights today. The motion of the yacht proved challenging for the
training, however the cadets quickly overcame this challenge. The
cadets second day into the journey and today proved to be a test.
They adapted to adjusting the sails for the changing weather conditions and
worked hard to obtain the best speed possible. All has went well on our second
day and we look forward to a positive day again
tomorrow.
