Left after lunch Futami Harbor. Now we already out and Nishi-Jima is already abeam on STB.

TWD is good, TWS could be a bit more but according to forecast the wind speed should increase.

We are sailing with genoa opened with barber hauler at an AWA of 150 deg PRT. Soon I’ll increase the AWA to go more north.

The swell comes from W and the wind from almost S, so it’s not the typical very comfortable downwind sailing. MaRe rocks a bit.

Shigeo finished his calls to two harbors, which we use for waiting for better winds. Final decision most likely on Sunday.

Behind me I’m hearing the sound of the fishing rid reel. Tobi wants to get some sashimi for dinner. However, he does not undisclosed what kind of fish he is going for.
