This will be the fun race, when we can sail downwind!

Hello!
A bit bumpy this early evening, as it’s still a largely upwind race to Hawaii, though perhaps we are seeing a persistent clocking, that bears hints of easing the sheets and shifting gears through our sail inventory: Blast reacher, Jib Top and spinnakers…
Getting ready to download weather, and then make the first batch of freeze dried dinner. Wanted to get a quick message out, though.
Hula Girl is trucking (and bucking) along in 12-16 knots from 300-310 and 2-3 ft seas from the north (hints of downwind in our future?)
Best to all!
Barry and the crew of J/World’s Hula Girl
