Wind easing, at last!

04:00UTC 25/11/08 25'04N 067'02W

After nearly four days when the wind has been over twenty knots, we're looking forward to slightly lighter conditions. Ty Dewi has been great, providing her famously smooth ride through all this rough weather but even so it will be nice not to have to hang on so much. Yesterday maintained wind speeds around 25, with gusts over 30 and there was too much spray around to sit out in the cockpit, so we all hid downstairs and read, chatted and ate our meals. It's fine but it'll be nice to be out in the sunshine today. Maybe do some fishing too....

Of course, within twenty four hours I'll probably be whining about a lack of wind and slow progress.

All's well. N.
