Day 2
21 February 2024
Hello from DNR! Phew, it’s so hard to believe it’s not even been 48 hours out here. This race is known for “600 miles, 600 sail changes” and it’s just about accurate. After 24 hours in, we had sailed three upwind legs and three downwind legs, as well as five of our nine sails! The long leg down to Guadeloupe was shifty with big squalls and local effects, but we pushed through, got some sleep, and now have had enough shut-eye to write this! Thank you for all the support back home. Here comes the tricky bit…
