Putting miles in the bank -- update from Greg!

We had a wild night. Winds 20-30 with confused seas and constant waves washing the boat. We made good distance (about 166 as of 8AM)averaging around 11 knots. Hula Girl is well out in front but this point of sail is not our strongest. We're flying a small jib and reefed main. When the wind clocks further north as expected, we can fly a chute and see if we can make up ground on them. We're all wet and a little cold but everyone feeling good.
