Aloha Everyone, this will be short as we are experiencing squally weather which keeps me busy on deck. We have had to motor most of the day and our wind has been mostly out of the North! So much for a fast passage home. We had some nice sailing this evening, but the moment I went on watch it turned rainy, squally with the wind all over, but still out of the North. Our highlights were a nice shower on the bow using the anchor wash down pump (we are being very conservative of our water as port tan leaks and watermaker not functional). The water felt warm and then we rinse with some fresh water we have stored on deck. The other highlight was seeing a double green flash. A swell rose the boat up just after first flash so we could see it again. Crew doing well, Cathy feeling better. All for now. David
