Melinda's Update for Today (May 6th)

I saw five birds, whipped lines, and raised the daggerboards today. We are puttering along at the blinding speed of 7.2 knots over
the ground. We have about a 0.8 knot current against us. The sea water temperature is 83.3 degrees Kelvin. The depth is 14,957 feet.
I ate a turkey sandwhich with avocado in it and one mushy banana. We're going to have a birthday party in six days.
