A Day of Milestones...

We hit several milestones today:
1 week at sea
1,000 miles from Newport (not including the 200+ miles we sailed diverting towards Cabo)
First time with the spinnaker up
The sun was out!
It got warm!

It was a beautiful day, one we had been waiting for. We enjoyed awesome fast sailing with a top speed of 15.6 knots. It made it extra nice since last night was very uncomfortable with extremely lumpy and bouncing seas. It was a tough night for everyone onboard.

But we were all in great spirits today and enjoyed the ride. Hoping for more of the same tomorrow.

We will take down the spinnaker before it gets dark and we will sail at night with a jib and reefed main.

Looking forward to a clear night and seeing the stars!
