[status] Another delightful sailing day today, Merry Christmas Eve! Making good time and not pushing Libby at all. Saw our 1st commercial ship this morning, Sasebo Green (MMSI 538005622 for you sailing geeks). Spoke at length with a very nice 3rd Mate from the Phillipines. Ship was coming from Mobile, Alabama to Lan Shan, China. ETA January 13th! We wished each other a Merry Christmas from the high seas.
