SY Visions of Johanna Bermuda to Dingle, Ireland Crossing Day 13 post #2

North Atlantic Ocean
Position: 48 52.6 N/25 14.0W
SOG 8.41 knots; COG 080 mag
TWS 17.4 kn ; TWD: 199 mag

Current situation: After a slowish morning (6-7.5 kn), wind has clocked to the SSW and increased a bit and we have logged steady 8+ and 9 knot hours since noon. I just placed a third reef in the main, and we are sailing just forward of beam reach with jib and staysail. Speed down a touch to the high 7's.

All is well. 593 nm to go to our WP approach.

Best wishes,

Bill Strassberg and crew, SY Visions of Johanna
