[status] Not long after the previous update the wind faded a bit and all reefs were shaken out. Made a bit more north by poling out the jib and we had some excellent sailing with good wind but this afternoon the wind faded more and the current has become less favorable. So pole came down and we?ve been heading more south on a wind angle to keep moving and just hanging in there with okay speeds. Probably should have got the gennaker up but a bit too lazy. Anyway later tonight it looks like we definitely will need the motor as the wind gets really light and up the chuff.
[speed] 6.5 knots
