Distance from Bahia San Telmo 362 nautical miles.
Distance to Galapagos 557.
Nautical miles in last 24 hours 190.
Wind NE 10-15 knots.
Heading 244 degrees true.
Poled out 130% genoa and main, wing on wing. Top speed overnight with wind current & surf 11.6 knots!!!
Doing well wind getting lighter as we get nearer to the Equator as expected.
