[Weather] Clear skies with apparent wind from the East @ 8 knots. Boat speed 6.5 kts with the help of current. Flat Sea conditions.
[Status] Monday, 10:00 pm. Motored most of the day with very light breeze from astern (or, as Bruce says, "up the butt"). Hot and rolly! Ran the watermaker and topped off tanks, washed decks and had showers! Back to sailing around 5:00 pm so now blissfully quiet and calm. We should have wind for the rest of the trip. 320 miles to go. All is well on board.
I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.
