| It's NOT a race |
From noon yesterday we sailed until 1900 in the evening. Very nice light airs sail with a calm sea only disturbed by a long swell from the SSE. We then motored through the night under a mostly clear sky until 0300 when a thin bank of fog passed over us. The fog was clearly at the boundary of a new breeze and the engine was turned off. Today we sailed until noon when the wind died once more.
We're gradually approaching the Galapagos. We'll pass well clear to the S. In the image above Zen Again is blue. Lets Go is 120nm ahead and on our stbd quarter are Onyx, Xora and Sea Change. We're all looking forward to escaping the blue (windless) area into the green.
Today we advanced our clocks one hour to UTC-6. We've a few more timezones to sail through on this passage.
Trust all's well where you are!
