The slow sailing persists in this high pressure zone and it looks it will be around for a while. I didn’t make much progress overnight last night and this morning the sea was rolling glass. I started to helm and found that I could make the boat respond a little better so I have been hand steering the boat all day to make it go as fast as possible.There is along night of steering ahead of me tongiht.  It has paid of I think as I have put in some miles to the north.  Otherwise, I think the winner must be almost finished by now and congratulations to him. What an outstanding job.

Take Care
