19 12.22S 171 07.33E

Hello All,
we had a great days sail. The wind came up to 20 knots on a beam reach so I had the working jib, staysail and a full main. The seas have been pretty flat so with that combination I actually broke a self cruising record of doing 7.8 knots with the boat handling it very well. I think that all of the conditions were perfect for that, sail arrangement and sea state.
We are about 17 hours out of Tanna now so we are all getting excited. We should be in the bay by early afternoon tomorrow. The first few days went very slow but since then Freestyle has been a sailing machine.
I will let you know when we get in so till then, I will talk to you soon.


PEACE
