He actually sent this to me 4 days ago, but I've been a little delinquent... my apologies.
Just thought of you while the boat is surging along in the dark. It's inky black out there, but a nice night with steady wind. Doing about 5+ k with just the genoa (70% of) up. the boat is behaving well. did something dumb - tried the food preservation suggestion from Lynn Pardey that didn't sound right - make a stew type dish, leave it in the pot and re=heat daily for 5 min at the boil and it'll be fine. NOT. Made stew night before last, had it again last night after reheating as suggested = my tummy did not like. I think I gave myself a (fortunately) very minor dose of food unhappiness. Not try that again. I'm fine, but ate lightly and carefully today.
It was a lovely afternoon - sunny and bright and the wind came up. I think I may be in for something though, despite the forecast of more of the same. There was cirrus cloud, and a boat on the net ahead of me a couple of days is reporting different wind speed and direction that I have, and than the charts and forecast suggest. We'll have to see.
Not much else.
take care
Dad
