A truly disgusting time for Lil Bit A Sol as we crawled across at 20:48:53.  The lack of wind on the first leg made for a real challenge. Starting at 17:11:16, we dropped right in to a prolonged "no wind" hole that seemed to last forever.. Oh well, there's 4 Rums left......Good time on the water just the same and the sloppy joes were good afterwards.

This was a pretty amazing evening weather wise.  Bay water was pretty nice as well.  Hope the TRW weather is as nice.

Thanks for the pictures John.  First time I got to see the new 155.

Here's a 3 minute version of the low range rounding at 3x speed from El Jardin.
