Mike is just about half-way across the Pacific to Hawai’i! Here is a note from Mike explaining his daily routine aboard: “I wake up around 11 and have brunch, retire to the aft deck for sun and light reading. Then enjoy a refreshing beverage in the afternoon followed by dinner. Lay down for a bit then do the 8-12 watch. Sleep some then do the 4-8 watch, then sleep some more and repeat. Relaxing. The most excitement today was emptying the fuel bladder into the tank.”

As for me… I’m still in Mexico visiting my parents aboard their boat Prana. We took the boat out today for some fishing and sailing. We did get some wind… but no fish.
