Hello from Chris and Lori here. We are still moving along making excellent time. We had a record breaking distance of 170 nautical miles in a 24 hour period yesterday. The faster we go, the faster we get to Hawaii!!!! We've been checking in daily with the Pacific Sea Farers Net over the radio from 5-6 p.m. daily. They plot our position on a chart/map online that you can check out by either googling "Yotreps" and then looking for "ships position" or "ships track" or possibly if you go to "sailwx.info" You can see our daily progress there and also get an idea of what other sailboats are out there too.
Would love to write more, but still a little queezy.
Lots of love,
Chris and Lori
