Big Improvement

Since my earlier entry the sea conditions have improved. The weird swell pattern that caused all the trouble abated and the wind backed off to a reasonable 18 kts. I took a 2 hour snooze, conditions improved and now the boat is sailing well again at 6 kts in 6 foot seas. Fishing lines are back out. Now that we are at 10N we are in the tropics. The humidity is much higher. Correction to my earlier entry, we made 131 miles in the last 24 hours. The current against is less now so that should help our
progress a bit. We have seen many Malolo flying through the air. Really big schools. Should be some big fish chasing them around here.
