The winds have been good all day - they started to pick up mid morning and have built steadily. We had full main and poled out genoa all day but then around 8pm last night we had to reef both when the wind reached 35 knots in some of the gusts. The waves are betting quite large and we are surfing down them at upto 10 knots which is exciting but quite scary at the same time. Fortunately the wind seems to dropping a little this morning, but still around 20 - 25 knots so the reef will stay in a while longer!
Hoping to arrive either Sunday night or Monday morning - it will depend if we can keep the good speeds up we have been making.
Distance run on Day 3: 164 n/m
