[status] Two nice dolphin shows this morning, and I was fortunate enough to be on watch for the encore performance! The rhumb line distance from our current position to Cape Flattery is 1260 nm, plus another 90 nm to Port Townsend; its tempting to start calculating an ETA, but we know better than that just yet! Sail on! "All is well on board!" Thanks for following us on YIT!

Going well here but could do with a bit more wind! ... Had a bit of a slow night, as we also had to gain northing to cross a strong contrary current, so while we sailed a fair way, the distance over ground actually covered westwards was a lot less! Still, we are now into a much more positive (westbound!) current, which we will, hopefully, be able to remain in for the rest of the way... Yay! Plus, it's another blazing hot and clear day!
