Greetings from VALIS! We are currently at lat 36 deg 46 min N, lon 125 deg 04 min W, (about 150 miles due west of San Simeon). Now that the wind has picked up we are making good speed on a southwest course, averaging between 7 and 8 knots.
The crew is in good spirits, and I have just come off watch (Rich replaced me, and Alan still has 1-1/2 hours to go on his three-hour watch). It has been mostly overcast since Monday, and it is still cold after sunset.
We have been eating well (the small seas no doubt play a factor here), and we have consumed the remainder of our bon-voyage sandwiches, baked chicken for Monday’s dinner and Tuesday’s lunch, and lasagna for dinner last night.
Now, to sleep, Paul.
