Hi, all is well on board Kite.  We came through the last front with only small issues and now we have sunshine and 15-17kts… Upwind!  On the exciting front, we may tack tomorrow afternoon.  In all seriousness, it is nice to have a break from the changing conditions of the fronts.  At times it was pretty full on.   With the reefs in the main, I had to use the dinghy bailer to bail the water out of the main. 

The goal in these fronts has been to preserve the boat and me and I think we did that well.  Now all we need is some extra sleep and food.

The smoother seas this morning meant eggs for breakfast.  I’ve also had a bit of a clean up down below.   No doubt I will have time later to conjure up a bit of magic from the bag of freeze dried food for a delightful dinner.
