24 hr progress: 44.51 Nautical Miles
Had a few good hours of rowing last night in solid darkness. Starting to prefer rowing at night as the temperature is a bit cooler than in the day and the starts are more interesting to navigate by than the sun in the day. I find that the body is much more alert to the sound of the wave and the direction in which its approaching. As the boat is just 1 foot above the water, it does not take much for a wave to break over the side, catching me off guard on more than one occasion. Makes rowing more interesting anyway.
Not too shabby on the mileage front today. 44.51 Miles. Highlight of the day was crossing into 26W.
