Day 3
FALKEN is cruising right along at 8-9 knots and completing 484 nautical miles within the first three days of our voyage. The last twenty four hours have been tough with moderate sea state and wind speeds, but the crew has been in high spirits since the change in weather. The moderate winds have given us the opportunity to put up the staysail and Yankee along with a reefed main.

I have only been on FALKEN for nearly two weeks, and to experience her alive with a full crew is something else.
