A day of good & bad news

Noon position N19.19 W130.12. Great 24 hour run of 183 miles, 1807 miles to HO. Good news and bad news today. Bad news after running hard for over 24 hours, we blew head and luff tapes out of 3/4oz kite :(

Good news we retrieved ok and better news is that it is repariable (by sailmaker). Even better news is we have more kites! Very best news is that we caught a beaut Mahi Mahi this morning and it is my cooking night!

Answer to yesterday's question: what is 53' long and has 7 flotation devices each 6'2" long? Mistress with 7 surfboards. Current joke aboard is that if we have to abandon ship we will forgo life raft and simply hop on a surfboard! Crew well settled into the passage and we are having fun.

Cheers, MC
