NEWS:
The breeze has filled in again and the sky has become overcast. We are beginning to pass through the remains of disturbance we have been monitoring for the past few days. The center of the disturbance has passed well north of us but it has left some rain and confused breeze in its wake.
We are making good speed toward Antigua and have been able to get quite a few projects done with the calm weather. Today we brought the main down to inspect it and the halyard for chafe, and found none.
We have only caught one small dolphin in the past 24 hours which almost immediately became very tasty fish tacos.
