2/9/12

Noon Position: 51' S, 78 15' W, SOG 4 kts, COG 150, Day's Run 120nm.
Yesterday and last night the other shoe dropped... First full gale,
first horizontal knockdown, first sail damage. Of course, today I'm
drifting around in 10' seas with no wind and miserable drizzle.
everything is sopping wet, with a combination of condensation and leaks,
and I've got about 4 hours of sewing still to do, so I'm going to keep
this one short, since I want to get some sleep before it starts blowing
again tomorrow.
