Day 3 SXM to Newport

Noon Position  27deg 14N 66deg  44W

Course  -340 Degrees   Speed – 11 Knots        Day’s Run – 283  Miles

Weather – Sunny and calm

Wind  – 4  knots from   150 degrees

We had a great afternoon of motor sailing at 12-13 knots through until around midnight when the wind died and we  put away the main and genoa. Since then we have been motoring at 11knots in very pleasant conditions. It looks like we might have these conditions for another 24 hours before we get the breeze back.

We had a pod of Pilot Whales pass by us about 100m from the boat. They showed very little interest in us.

We have had the fishing lines out all morning but no luck yet.
