The worst has finally passed - two more flying fish on deck!
Sun Jun 23 2019 16:25:00 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time)
I don't wish to repeat the past three days anytime soon. Winds back down to 15 knots seas 8'. Monitor wind vane doing an admirable job but not for light air, especially in a run. Leak has slowed to half. Hoping batteries make it through the night at 41%. Full main and jib up. Hobie kayak lashing loosened and wore some nonskid off deck. Hoping Hobie is OK.
Finally able to cook and catch up on much needed energy. Plan to work on saltwater soaked engine alternator tomorrow. 135A spare is a little different than the 250A and will require rewiring. I'll also need to design some type of cover to prevent it getting wet.
Mid Atlantic ocean awe inspiring sunsets.
8 bells and all is well! Hoping you are too.
