April 22 first day out

We have been sailing for approximately 24 hours now and all is going well. The wind has been more northerly than we would like, but other than that sailing has been easy. It was easy sailing last night with one reef and jib, but we were sailing upwind. Today the wind has picked up a little, 15+ knots, and shifted a little more to the east, currently ENE, still have the same sails up. Brian caught the first fish, a mahi mahi, so we will have fish tacos tonight.

Everyone is doing well, nobody is sea sick. It is just taking Axel a little longer to get his sea legs.

Fair winds and calm seas,
Julie
