38°34N 33°36W at 1200 070608


Storm raging since yesterday, SW blowing force 7 and maybe 8, seas 2 to 3,5 meters filling the cockpit every so often, Mona is at the helm ( a bit jerky for my taste), Naomi surfing along with 2 reefs in the main and the 135% reefed 50%... and we did out best day ever 178M/24h!!! We watched the front come at us and hit us at 2000 last night. More traffic crossing our track, one every few hours, all respond to VHF and agree to joint maneuvers. Barometer never lower than 1025.
