[status] Day 35... A couple of friends wrote to us commenting on the stats from YIT (this very site you are reading). I think it makes us look like we are doing extraordinary speeds! Alas no! I do not know how they calculate them. One day I might ask Mike. In the meantime, our daily average 24hr run is about 140nm. Our speed is about 6.5. Because of the repair we can only run a double reefed main; at least we don't have to ask ourselves reef or no reef, if the wind comes up!

There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.
