Day 4 Gib to St Martin
Noon Position 29deg 18N 22deg 27 W
Course – 254 Degrees Speed – 10.1 Knots Day’s Run – 247Miles
Weather – Scattered clouds and 6 foot (2m) seas
Wind – 15 knots from E
The rolling continues but the seas are getting better. Unfortunately the winds are not strong enough to push us along so we continue to motor sail. Normally there would be stronger winds south of here making it worthwhile to head down before going too far west but the trade winds have not settled in yet so we are now taking the rhum line to St Martin making the trip a bit shorter in distance.
The weather getting warmer certainly is being appreciated, but we have seen very little wildlife and still no fish.
