Day 16 - Puerto Mogan to Antigua

Another frustrating day! Yesterday we managed exactly 100 miles, today will be less though! We had light winds early on and flew the cruising chute, then the winds tracked round to the SW and we started sailing close hauled. They built to a force 8 for the early part of the night and we pounded into them. They've started to swing round now and moderate - fingers crossed we're finally coming out of this low pressure band and heading back for the trade winds!!

All on board is good though - fresh scones yesterday and counting down the days til we're there (only 1120 ish to go!)
