[weather]Winds lighter than expected. Motor-sailed first 22 hours until we exited Manning Straits to open ocean. Now enjoying 7-9 knots from SE but have an adverse current of about 1 knot

[status]All well on board. Caught a Mahi before exiting Manning Straits (after about 4 strikes that resulted in nothing getting hooked). Looks like a slow (but comfortable) trip. It has been HOT and water temp up to 90 F. Water should cool down once we leave the 'hot pool'.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
