Windy and wild

We have gone about 160 miles in 30 hrs. Great time. The wind is blowing between 20 and 25 and we are sailing with just the Main alone doing about 7knts. Tried to run the Jib too but the wind wouldn't fill it with such lumpy seas. Looks like we might make it there tomorrow afternoon, but the wind is suppose to let up a bit tonight and tomorrow. We actually hit 11 knots with both sails up before if wouldn't hold it shape. The ocean is now a very dark shade of aqua I will try to fish soon. Yellow tail have been caught in the fleet.
Make sure you check out yotrips too. This is our location
