DAY3 Yesterday was pretty much a repeat of the day before. In our excitement Friday evening of having wind forward of the beam, we packed away the spinnaker and pole. With yesterday's sunrise, the wind died, it became incredibly hot on deck, and Bruce had to muscle out all the spin gear again. At 10:00 we were back in the shade of the cockpick with the spinnaker valiantly pulling us along at 4 knots in 4 knots of breeze. Not a banner day but at least we were sailing. And like the day before, the wind switched to forward of the beam at sunset and we changed sails. Last night we had a whopping 10 kts, 13 apparent, and averaged 6.9 kts through the night. This morning we are still cruising along with sunny skies and a sea that is almost periwinkle. Time to put that lure back in the water.
