Rusty at the helm

05052008 1600 Position 22 04'N 68 34'W wind 8-12kn shifting south.

Approximatly 8nm North of the direct course. Forecast is for a patch of light wind for a day or so, but being north of planned route should put us in better position for a fast smooth ride as the NE wind arives with the next weather system.

The crew now has it's sea legs. Seas are calmer and more predictable. There's a turkey in the oven for tonights dinner. Here's a shot of Rusty at the helm for last nights sunset. Lora says the clouds are looking good for another great one tonight.

Note to Janet and Andre: Thanks for texting us the weather info. It's nice to have the additional info to supplement the forecast info we're downloading.
