10 FEBRUARY 2007.
POSITION: 12:42.2 N. 76:46.9 W – 195 MILES NORTH OF CARTAHENA, COLUMBIA
DISTANCE TRAVELLED: 225 MILES
WIND: 20 KNOTS FROM THE N.E.
WEATHER: PARTLY SUNNY
NEWS:
Timoneer is motor sailing almost directly up wind now. This will be our tactic for most of the trip to Grenada. The wind is up slightly, and the seas are getting to the lumpy stage. We are comfortable onboard.
Lena surprised us all with home baked muffins this morning, and served lasagne for lunch. Even though it is difficult to cook while underway, she is doing a great job.
Everyone has settled into their delivery routine, and small projects and jobs are being done between watches. There is no fishing today, our arms are still aching from yesterday’s marlin.
Best regards,
Robert
