Det känns alltid lite speciellt första dygnet av en långsegling. Vi har nu påbörjat seglingen över Karibiska havet, ca 1200sjömil som vi tror tar ca 8dagar. Första biten är ren västerut och ser ut att bli 12-16m/s i vind. Sista sträckan, när vi passerat ABC öarna och seglar mer söderut längs med Colombias kust ser ut att bli den tuffaste biten. Det brukar ofta blåsa hårdare här på grund av accelarationszoner och det faktum att vi även behöver skära av söderut mot Panama och eventuellt få vågorna mer i sidan påverkar också hur bekväm seglingen blir. Men det ska nog gå bra det här med. Vi har medströms och vågorna är inte mer än 1m höga just nu. Jag planerar att göra dagliga uppdateringar från havet även på denna långsegling. Kommentera gärna med "💙⛵️" om du ser fram emot att följa vår segling dag för dag över Karibiska havet. Nu ska jag fortsätta njuta på däck i solen ☀️ Och ja, jag ska även ta rodret en stund och låta resten av familjen njuta med ⛵️
