We are on our way South

We set sail from Cruise Port in Ensenada Friday at 10:30 with crew of 4 - Al, JoLinda, Jill and Jim Morgan bound for Puerto Vallarta with maybe some stops in between. Sailing at 6.7 kts with high for the day 7.3 wing and wing. We turned the engine on if we were going under 5kts. Light variable winds from behind mostly sunny skies. Swell picked up during the night. A long 6 ft swell from the west with wind waves 3-5 from the north makes it pretty lumpy. It was a cold damp night in the low 50's.
To day the swell has built to 10 ft with the same wind waves but we have jibbed after passing well clear of the Sacramento Reef so the swell is from behind. Chez Nous is almost surfing. 8.3 kts just after lunch.
All is well .
