Passage to Ecuador day 1

7 29.400 N, 79 18.194 W

Three Sheets gave us a Bon Voyage dinner last night. We had a great time and we will miss them.

We waved goodbye to Reg and Phoebe
 
This morning we were anchor up at 8:40 am and on our way. We started by motoring but soon added our sails which is nice for a change. With a positive current we made good time. There have been squalls occasionally but they don't last for long. For a while some dolphins joined us which is great unless they are saying "So long and thanks for all the fish".

There has been very little traffic which is nice and we hope that will continue through the night. We have been trying to balance southern and western vectors to use the wind and position ourselves for the rest of the passage.

Cheers,
Elaine and Rich
