24 Hour position report.
May 4th 1030 (Atlantic Standard/Eastern Daylight time) C330M S6.7kn 19 51.45N 66.49.70W – 1050 (nautical) miles to Savannah.
Despite the confused seas and a bit of sea sickness amongst the crew. Progress has been fast. The wind angle has been good for the first 24 hours of our journey. It has allowed us to sail a direct course to Savannah. We've sailed over 150 miles and are 1050 miles from our next waypoint Wassau Sound. From there, it's just a short motor up the river to the marina.
8PM Position Report..
May 4th 2000 C330M S6.5kn 20 34.56N 67 17.17W - 995 miles to Savannah.
After 200 miles of sailing, crew members are beginning to get their sea legs. The sea state is still somewhat confused, but is becoming more regular. Wave height has also decreased. We're not having to look up to see the tops of them anymore. Although we're quite a ways from shore, we're seeing a bit of wildlife. This morning, Pete and Lora found a macral on the deck. We saw several flying fish and quite a few birds. Steve and Rusty picked up a hitchhiker this evening as one of the birds landed on our Bimini top.
