Spent my off time reading Conquest by Juliet Barker and sleeping. We motored north all night and this morning trying to find some wind. Finally we ran into some wind from the southwest. This allowed us to turn the engine off and sail on a broad reach on course 95* magnetic. Accounting for variance of...

Date: Wednesday, 6/01/2011Location: St. Georges, BermudaWeather: Light breeze, Sunny Today we made preparation for the next leg to the Azores.

They even had a "praise band" but let's just say that it paled in comparison to Marion Christian. I knew every one of ...

Date: Saturday 05/28/2011Location: St. Georges, BermudaWeather: Light breeze, Sunny This morning everyone slept in and it was nice to get a full night's sleep for a change. The only boat work we did was to replace the genoa halyard shackle and re-install the genoa. After that we went ashore to do laundry at the yacht club and then into town for the afternoon. We all split up and went our separate ways which I think is necessary after being in such closed quart...
