Big Bend Passage

The weather window opened and we were ready to "Do a Carrabelle!", and leave.  The beginning of the 23 hour trip was rough, but by the afternoon it was getting better and better.  By midnight the stars were out and the waves were down.  Gary had reefed the main and we were making great time.  I slept stretched out in the cockpit and Gary woke me at 4 AM for a relief break.  We started seeing Dolphins and were very excited that we had such a good passage.
