This ol floating Winnebago can move if she wants to. 18.3 knots last night (recorded) but the boys said they saw the gauge spike to almost 20 for a split second..

July 9- 1400hrs
The home stretch. We're under 200nm from the finish and should be showing up on the Yellow Brick live tracker any minute now.
We're being showered pretty often by squalls which is somewhat of a relief from rising temps along with the giving the boat a much needed rinse. We had a pretty big one roll through and push us more westward, lining us up nicely with the Molokai channel.
None the less, chatter is growing about the finish line, seeing family and friends, and some awesome welcoming food and mai tais thanks to our friends at The Ivy at Hawaii Kai.

Forgot the obligatory dinner post from last night..
Crab Louie Salad! Fresh picked greens from our transom garden, home made dressing and crab from a random crab pot we found floating along the way..
The eggs, we obviously brought along with us..
