SY Visions of Johanna Bermuda to Dingle, Ireland Crossing Day 14 post #2

North Atlantic Ocean
Position: 51 14.8N/17 36.4W
SOG 9.28 knots; COG 070 mag
TWS 10.2 kn ; TWD: 253 mag

Current situation: We motor sailed through the morning, and then engine went off 13:00 hours. There has been great sailing all afternoon, broad reaching, surfing down waves. A nice day overall. Crew is talking of timing and who will first see land or lights. We will approach Dingle Bay probably several hours after midnight early Monday morning. A small celebration will ensue I'm sure, once onshore.

All is well. 277 nm to go to Dingle Bay.

Best wishes,

Bill Strassberg and crew, SY Visions of Johanna
