Gib to Antigua Day 7

Gib to Antigua Day 7

Noon Position 19 deg 15N 31deg 21 W

Course  – 266 Degrees   Speed – 11.5   Knots        Day’s Run – 272  Miles

Weather –  Sunny with 13’ (4m) swells from NNE

Wind  – 22  knots from  055  degrees

We had the engine off at times yesterday and were sailing at speeds up to 13 knots but the winds kept changing and forced us to motor sail. Soon after dark the swell got too big and we had to take the main and genoa down so they were not damaged as we were rolled by the swell on the beam. Without those big sails to stabilise us we had a very rolly night. By the morning the wind had strengthened enough to keep the sails full and we sailed for a while. We are now motor sailing with the staysail, main and mizzen. The seas are building but it is due to come from behind us from tomorrow onwards which will hopefully speed us up and be more comfortable.
