[status] I think we must have taken a wrong turn somewhere and ended up in India during Moonsoon season! Have been motorsailing/motoring since yesterday afternoon, and it?s been raining most of the time since then too. Sometimes it?s just normal rain, but at other times it?s like the ocean is falling from the sky. The rain flattens the water and waves out and looks impressive, but we?re sick of being wet and everything just feels damp due to the moisture in the air. We?re very much looking forward to some sunshine to dry things out! Luckily it?s fresh water, not salty, so we won?t have to wash the boat down when we arrive. It did stop for an hour or so and allow us to put the diesel from the jerry cans on deck into the diesel tank, so that?s a bonus now having enough fuel to motor all the rest of the way if necessary. We also landed a small mahi-mahi and so had a nice lunch. All well on board.
