Day 3

New PR set for Tiki Blue a 213 mile 24 hour run. It was tough driving night last night blindingly dark no reference point felt like we were sailing in space. Today Lindsay had a nice speed record surfing off a wave at 15 kts ,computer said 18. This breaks Murray's record I believe. We are working through minor issues. Batteries are randomly charging so trying to keep an I on this. Water and food supply is great. Will is keeping us focused like herding geriatrics to a bingo game :) We just don't move like we use to. Water is getting blue and days getting warmer. Tiki is in a happy place. We do see more adventure ahead and will keep a sharp eye on storm systems ahead. Cheers Gary/Crew.

Keep up the good work Sunshine boys! Ha Ha! I'll bet Will is impressed with the collective experience on the boat! I know from the past, you, Jimmy Olivero and Gary Albright have taught young Will a thing or two when he was a teenager, yes? Nice to see it come full circle! Great speed and position, please be safe! XO

Keep the pedal to the metal. Maybe Tuki is the 10 day boat of your dreams? Impressive runs, we log on every 3 hours from Portugal to follow along.
