Sea Legs, or lack of

Sorry for the lack of posts since wee left, but I've discovered that my sea
legs take about 3 days to kick in! That's 3 days of throwing up and
sleeping, not so nice! But, we've been making good progress, and should be
getting to the straights of Florida in 2 days.

Had some fun with ships towing long cables, melted wires in the engine room
and a dead tacktick instrument, but nothing that should slow us down.

You can also check out progress by looking at www.kemahportal.com, which has
a progress map and updates from the trip.

Bob, that age of problem of being at sea and the old ticktack going down again! Its also a well known fact that if you want to avoid a watch, feign sea sickness.
Seriously sorry to here that you have not been 100%, hopefully that will soon be over and that you will become a useful member of the crew and enjoying the ocean life. Just keep thinking that your only at sea for 10 days and Bermuda is in site. Enjoy yourself. Dad

Robert, Sorry to hear that you haven't been well. Hopefully you are back to enjoying the bacon sarnies again. (Note to self: Add Stugeron to bag! ;-P) Well done on blogging from the boat - is that via a mobile account ? Hope all are (now) well.
See you in Bermuda. Dave..
