From Anduril:
Day Three on the High Seas
A thoroughly entertaining day. Great run of 184.5 NM in good sailing conditions. A certain amount of friendly rivalry between drivers yielded some impressive speeds in surfing conditions (19.4 kts) but we are leaving the identity of the helm a mystery.
Another gourmet dinner though this one interrupted by a side dish of frantic foredeck action dealing with an angry spinnaker and recalcitrant main. Combined forces of many hands (fourteen actually) tamed the cloth beasts and the remainder of diner proceeded more or less as planned.
Other entertainments provided in the form of minor sail repairs. No shortage of things to do between catching up on some much needed sleep.
The sun has come out and the sea is a lovely dark blue. The jellies are all around the boat. Lots of food there for something or other. Given our longitude the ships time is now one hour behind Vancouver.
