Position Report: June 25, 2017
Position: 40º 49.05′ N 69º 15.21′ W We lost our wind entirely today. It’s been 12 hrs of motoring already, and we probably have a dozen more before the wind fills in. Match that with a 1.7 knot counter current, and you have some real slow going. We used the time to make power and […]

Position: 37º 46.848′ N 73º 4.098′ W I love me a good gale, which is a good thing because that’s what we will get tonight. 12-24 hrs of gale and 11′ swell. Convivia is managing the conditions like a champion, holding her course like she’s on rails, and yawning at the occasional side swell as […]
