My boat speed has increased but that has taken all day to make happen. I am relieved to see I am not alone and unfortunately I think we will be seeing another day of fickle shifty light breeze before we clear this high pressure and its associated little wind holes. Then we may be able to concentrate on sailing towards home.
The guys at the front are romping home and it is awesome to see. One of these days I will make it across the finish line in time for the party.
