Vessel status:
Sailing downwind under genoa
Today the predicted winds finally filled in and we made good time for a few
hours. Now we’re sailing downwind with the genoa rigged with the whisker
pole. This will make it easy to roll the sail in if any thunderstorms
develop in the area. We’re about 62.4 nautical miles from Cape Fear, and
should cross there in the morning.
