昨晩から風を求めて４5度方向に12時間機走。
朝になって少し風が出てきたので帆を張り、雲が点在していて風がありそうな北を目指しています。
強風を避けるため南下し（はじめの3日）、今度はかぜを求めて北上で、なかなかまっすぐハワイへとは行かないようです。このような作戦は、（株）気象海洋の馬場正彦社長から毎日メール頂く親切な個人指導に基づいています。本当に貴重でありがたいです。そうでなければ、嵐や無風地帯の真ん中に突っ込んでいたでしょう、。馬場さんありがとうございます！　
今日は海水で洗濯してみます。

　Since last evening, we ran with the engine on the 45 deg course. At JST0500, the engine was cut off because some wind was felt. Now,we are going toward North, for we see scattered clouds in the north where wind is expected. We went south avoiding a storm, and now going north to searching for wind. Such tactics is based upon information from Mr.Masahiko Baba,Certified Weather Forecaster and owner of Weather and Marine company, who sends me e-mail every day with customised precious information and recommendation. Without his information we would have been beaten by a storm or run into the center of windless high pressure area .Today, I will try laundry using sea water.
