Our current position is N 15.52 and W 48.29, winds are 14 to 16 knots, and we are reaching under spinnaker,
main, and mizzen. We have 780 miles to Antigua. The engine has not ben turned on since the Cape Verdes.
Not much to write today, save for the recent, frequent visits from "man on a boats" best friend, the dolphin.
Since last night, a couple of dolphins have come by every two hours or so for a bit of play time. I do not know
why, but dolphins always look so darn carefree and happy.
I want to write a quick "shout out" for Jon Barrett, the manager of Bequia. When you build a custom yacht, you
need to be very aware, that delivery of your new boat just means you need to start immediately to renovate (and I
don't care who builds her). Under Jon's guidance, Bequia has changed pumps, hydraulics, and remounted much
of her mechanics. Jon has suggested many other improvements. In addition to finding Seumas and handling the
boats finances, Jon has made Bequia a better boat, and has made her pure pleasure for the owner.
Jon has also been part of rebuilding, not once but twice, the greatest sailing yacht on the water, Endeavor. And he
was navigator on Bequia's successful run at the Loro Piana Cup.
Looks like tomorrow night might be the only possible bad weather between us and the Carribean. The forecast is
for fairly high seas. We will see.
In a good sign, I forgot what day it was today. The ocean is all around all day, and an explosion of stars each
night begins to warp time, I guess.
