[weather] SE-SSW 6-10 with beautiful clear skys and warm wind
[speed] 4-7knots[status] With Isla Isabela slowly disappearing over the horizon, with some regret we say goodbye to the wonderful Galapagos Islands, which truely deserves an extra few months to explore and marvel at her many wonders. Wind is slowly starting to pick up and become more consistent, and we are reaching, but following the wind direction as it varies widely between SE and S and heading between SSW and W with the gusts. We'll focus on maximising speed for the next few days, to alternate between VMG and southing, to get us to the more consistent trades. Hopefully we'll see them tomorrow afternoon, and we can get our downwind sails out and start making serious progress towards the Marquesas:) This will be our last communication for at least a few days, but will update you all when we get a chance. Take care all, hugs from Danielle, Lyndsay, Mikey and Tim
