Day 3 in the race

August 25, 2010

Today at 1300 UTC we added 171 Nm to our distance making a total of 376 Nm in the race.

Both internet and our Watermaker -called Alida- are working again after a temporary refusal to work properly.

Just two hours ago we had a complete drop in wind. Now the wind is only 7 knots giving Winsome a speed of only 2.5 knots. If this continues the race could last into October, but as we all know wind is never boring and full of surprises. Negative and positive, in an unpredictable manner.

We are drying now our clothes on deck.

Dag Theun, Wiecher, Maas en Hidde, van opa.
