Cloudy everywhere but we have wind, about 12-15knts.  We're moving along under our jib top.  We can see 2 boats around us but too far away to know who they are.

We continue to change watch every 2 hours during the night and every 3 to 4 hours during the day.  Slowly getting into a rhythm.  It will be much nicer when we can get rid of our foulies... but I guess we have to wait for that moment a little longer.  Hawaii has to be earned...

Still no SSB radio but we do relays with Nathalie and Nathen from Elise through Sat phones.  Great competitive spirit!  We will have to buy them a lot of mai thai once in Hawaii to thank them.

Recidivist crew: I'm sure you guys are so ready for tomorrow's start.  We're going to try to keep our lead all the way to Hawaii...  Make sure you make some pit stops once in a while along the way.

Special 'hello' to the Children's Hospital & Research Center Foundation staff.  Hope you're enjoying the race so far... a lot more to go.

Stephane


PS: To my 2 little Sea Lions... go get those Stingrays!  Have a great swim meet.
