Update 14 November 2009

We are continuing to sail 24 hours a day, mostly making at least 5 knots of boat speed. We sped by Turtle Bay yesterday and we are about 140 miles from Mag Bay. If we continue to sail we do not need to stop in Mag Bay, but if the timing is right, we might stop just to have a look.

Weather has been cloudy and last night was definitely cool – in the 20 C range, and requiring a layer or two of fleece. However, today is mostly sunny and when the sun is shining, it is very warm. We continue to believe what the books say – we can throw away our fleece in Cabo san Lucas.

Yesterday, I had to replace a retaining pin on the windvane rudder and was amazed at the warmth of the water. It was 22 C and compared to an air temp of 20 it seemed warm.
