It is Sunday..we are 1130 miles from the finish line. Technically the
halfway point is 1035, but that is a straight line from SF. We have come WAY
south looking for wind, and it iw finally p[aying off. Running now in 15-19
knots pointing at Ohau. We are doing pretty well, but there is a pesky
Beneteau named Tutto Bene that we are having trouble shaking. We can see
them back on the horizon, but they keep dogging us. To save our time we have
to beat them by 3.5 hours. Could be ver yclose at the end. All systems
working finle. Still a very long way to go..later tiz
