Our pilot, Pedro, was late this morning so we did not leave until 6:15 am. Chuck and Linda on SV Jacaranda followed us close behind. After we let off Pedro, we turn south to Peru and Jacaranda turned the opposite direction to Panama.
So far we have been motorsailing with the main and staysail. Winds have varied between 12 and 19 knots and we are close hauled. The setting current has been between .5 and 1 knot. This evening the current has slackened and the wind is not on our nose as much so we are making about 5 knots speed over the ground.
we have traveled about 60 miles since this morning. Just a little under 750 to go.
Cheers
