Well...
The good news is that my sat phone works. The bad news is that we can download position reports and it doesn't look too good for us right now.
Its been a tough ride. More sail changes than ever and challenging conditions.
Our Bermuda Race rookie has the top speed record of 14.7knots and is very pleased with that fact!
One more night. All is not lost, we've got a big night ahead of us skirting a very strong low that is leaving the Bermuda area with some strong winds and a giant wind shift of almost 180 degrees. If we've positioned ourselves well and we stay out of trouble who knows what might happen.
Its been a fun ride. All aboard are happy and fine. It looks like the impossible might happen, Morpheus may finish a distance race in day light!
