Around 0930 UTC we were greeted with wind after a calm night of motoring. The light winds remained constant until 1400, with an average wind speed (AWS) of 16.2 knots. With Chris’s lead, the crew was able to get the spinnaker pole up and set the sails wing-on-wing. The crew made quick work with setting the pole and were all smiles once the Yankee sail was trimmed. I can see the crew’s confidence building as they take the helm and get into the normal routine of the watches. Working with this crew has been a pleasure, with their eagerness to learn and work as a team. Couldn’t have asked for a better crew for this passage. – Athena
