Well, after an exciting squall , wind slowly died. We sailed until we no longer could. Do we motor, heave to or drop all sails and go to sleep? Hmm, let’s motor sail for twenty minutes which is all it takes the alternator to fully charge my 3 x 160 v batteries. Btw this is the first time motor has been on since motoring out of Bahia los Frailles, 14 days ago. We motored for half an hour, shut down the motor, tied off the wheel and looked around. Lightening! Ok, I guess electronics needs to be off too! Leaving them on can cause major damage if hit by lightening, so they say… It is hard to imagine getting hit by lightening in the middle of the ocean, but a possibility, as we are the only mast out here for probably 200 miles…sleep tight!
