We are sailing in flat seas with the occasional glitter of flying fish
skimming across the seas. With the wonderous blue skies, from horizon to
horizon, it is truly a fabulous backdrop to really enjoy life.

At the moment we are sailing at around 13 / 14 kts T making a course of
ESE. We hope that the wind we are gettig stays woth us for as long as
possible. I is taking us in the right direction, but more important, to
soe new winds that will propel us in the direction of Panama.

We have around 450 miles to go at 110 degress T and then we should be in
15 kts of WNW winds. This should out us right on course for Panama and
will give us the opportunity to do around 20 to 25 kts of boat speeed.

We did have a few hours of little wind, going along at around 4 kts. But
the wind has picked up and we are now making up for lost time.

We had a great lunch, washed down with some New Zealand wine, and Alex
nearlly caught a big fish. It got away as Alex was pulling it in.

towards the Galapados Islands.They should be lightish to begin with,
around 5 to 10 kts, buyt they should get stronger, as time goes on,
