Sun out, spinacker up on a Wing on Wing run in Flat seas

Work this morning sun, and some wind now heading across the bay
to Cedros(29:22.524N 115:49.306W)to see the edge of possible whitecaps coming off
the coast, we were still motoring so Ed and I ran out the genie to test, then
we started to play with Spinnaker we go it to wing on wing, all three of
playing. Going directly down the coarse to Cedros and then Turtle it looks like
we will come into Turtle at around day break tomorrow. But the engine is off
and sun out, fishing lines out (still no fish), and water flat with just win
waves and small following swell. Land disappearing to port as we head across
the bay, which is so often the roughest part of this trip due to current
turning. If it stays like this it will be an ideal day. Steve just cooked
breakfast with French toast and sausages with tea who can complain. The
wind is expected to stay at around 10 knots, the satellite system is working
well for email and getting weather, all systems are going well. Happy sailing. |
