Left Socorro yesterday at 1400 local time. Sailed with spinnaker then
screecher until dinner time, then doused canvas and motored all night.
Wind was less than 6 kts. Motored 6.5 Kts w/ 1 engine at 1800RPM.
Just put the spinnaker up after doing 4 kts all morning with main and
screecher.
Steering for a waypoint at 7ºN, 120ºW. 760 Miles and 5 days to go at
this speed. That's the 1/3 mark.
It's been an easy start to the crossing. Skies are clear and
temperatures are already climbing. Sea temp is 76º.
All is well aboard.
