We covered 170 miles in pleasant conditions, sailing off the wind. A part from the large swell we have a fairly easy sea which produces a comfortable sailing motion.

We were unable to be heard by the SSB net this morning but are keeping in contact with Jody and Darren aboard s/v“Gratetouille” approximately 200 miles ahead of us, also heading to Hilo.

All is well aboard and all systems work smoothly. What a treat.
