         How quickly life changes!  One minute we are sailing along about 4 knots in
        calm and languid seas and the next minute the winds pick up to 25 knots.  It was
        two minutes before the watch change at 9 PM and everyone was on deck.  We
        reefed all three sails and pounded into the very confused seas.  All the quiet and
        peaceful moments on the sea was quickly forgotten as we made our way through
        the night.  We were aware this would happen from the weather God,         
        HERB**. We are all thankful for the wind since many of us are getting low on fuel
        especially the smaller boats; we would just rather have calmer seas!!!  Beggars can't
        be choosers!!!!!
         Since your body and your mind needs to adjust to the different seas,  no-one
        had an appetite. (almost no-one) However, all the crew bravely continued their
        duties which includes hand steering!!!  Rudy, Ken, Chris and Kelli have been doing
        a magnificent job.  Since no-one enjoys going down below, I man the SSB for the
        weather (a couple of times a day) and roll call for the ARC Europe, cook, wash
        dishes and act like a Girl Friday.
         Yesterday, on the SSB there was a Quiz run by the ARC Europe.  We came in
        second!!  It was run by an Englishman, so he tried to be fair and gave us American
        questions.
         No fish report!  1120 NM  to go!!  N36.04  W52.07
         
        **Herb gives us personal weather forecast on the SSB between 3:30 to about 7:00
        each and every night... and it is free... he does accept donations which he richly
        deserves!!!
