5/17/14 onboard

Breeze on!

After a few days of lighter breezes we have had breeze of 12-15 with gusts up to 17 for the past 14 hours!  Even a little header this am to get us closer to rumb line.  YAY!  With the wind has been some rain, which according to our people from the north " a little mist".  We had a few squall lines come through last night and then this am quite a bit of fresh water landing on Nirvana.  Last night we got our first taste of how dark it can be out here- no moon and cloud cover.  This morning we found another flying fish had sacrificed itself on the deck with tons of them flying around all morning.  We have also had more bird sightings this am than the entire trip.  Chef Mitchell is currently cooking up chilequiles for brunch...

SV Nirvana out.
