NYCTEA - Danielle et l'équipage en navigation vers la MARTINIQUE

Position: 17°04.76'N - 041°30.30'W
Speed: 6.9
Direction: 253
AT: 11/30/2014 - 11:14 AM UTC

Day 14
Logged 2206.3 nautical miles
Winds are ENE at 15-18 kts - waves 6 feet - about 14 seconds apart making it possible for us to fly the gennaker. We attempted yesterday but the waves just too high. We still have the storm job poled out.

Had a slower day yesterday covering 159 nm but in the right direction so this is good. We hope that today will be better with the gennaker flying. We have 1118nm miles to go.

Today will be another milestone as we will be below the 1000nm mark by the time the night watches start. We are smiling already. It has been a rolly journey and we are all looking forward to terra firma. Crew is doing well.

Parker had his coat brushed yesterday none too soon as he was quite matted. We are still eating very well and can't believe the amount of food we have on board.
