12 April - Day #40. On the 40th day they rested! Nellie's crew was content to sleep in, lounge and basically do nothing all day long. A cold front moved through this morning. The winds clocked from south, through west, then north, and finally settled on east and rose to 20kts. It's good to have an 80 lb anchor and lots of chain. The Abacos Cruiser's net is held at 0815 daily on VHF 68. New arrivals are given the opportunity to announce themselves. Nellie decided to go stealth. After all, nobody will notice a green tug in a sea of sailboats ;-) At 4/12/2009 1:12 PM (utc) Nellie D's position was 26°39.51'N 077°08.74'W 0nm today: 1225nm total. DBH
