126 NM to the good! 1111 to go.
The wind bent to our favour yesterday and we have been heading north on our track ever since. This morning the winds and seas picked up averaging 25 knots and we have reduced sail down to 1/2 jib and still maintain speeds over 6 knots, so our mileage for tomorrow will be even better.
The conditions are supposed to ease over night and we should have smoother sailing over the next couple days. The skies and sea are grey and it's been raining all day. However, we are warm and dry below. We have our books and each other to keep company. I'm still able to make meals. We look forward to a quieter ride and count down the miles to Sitka.
