We are on the ocean off Cumberland Island with a wind of 7 knots doing 4.4 speed. Started with a reefed mainsail to be conservative but Ed is ready to raise the sail all the way to pick up speed.
The channel coming out was choppy but the ocean swells are better. We did 8.2 knots at our fastest so far.
It will be a night of catnaps and taking turns at the helm. Kinda chilly but coats are helping!
Ziggy is restless not used to all this but hopefully she will calm down tonite!
Oh I learned an interesting trick! My phone got wet and I put it in a bowl of rice for a day and now I can hear again!
Amazing.
