Day 3 - Puerto Mogan to Antigua

A good days sailing. The winds have been abit variable between force 2 and force 4 but we have been averaging about 5knots with the main and genoa up. We have been using the Hydrovane (wind vane steering) and compass so haven't had any instruments on apart from the VHF to conserve power.

The weather has been sunny during the day but still chilly at night - sailing kit has been needed.

Roo has finished his first book but is reluctant to start another yet - wouldn't want it to become a habit this book reading!!

Distance traveled on Day 3 - 110 miles (this is more like what we would be hoping to do every day - ideally we would want to be doing 120 miles a day)
Total distanced traveled - 289 miles
