A quiet night but the wind dropped steadily and by 7am we were having to motor. Light winds came back about 2 hours later but we are having to sail away from our direct line to make use of them. If we sail the direct route, the swells roll the boat and the little wind just spills from the sails! Frustrating!! It's been hot and sunny all day but the lack of breeze makes it essential to stay in the shadiest spot we can find. What we thought was going to be a 4 to 5 day trip looks like taking 6 or 7 unless we get some more wind!
