Hi Again,

FINALLY! We got some position information from "Libelle". Dr. Trudy Smyth in Barbados heard them this morning (10 am CDT check-in time) and got the following position information:

Lat 37.27 north,
Long 41.21 west,
They have about 600 miles to go to Horta.

Peter said they have run out of wind at the moment but hope to find it again soon. [I don't know about that, they have a big high pressure system sitting right on top of them which is forecast to follow them to the Azores. So I guess they aren't battling any big waves, and storms this time, but they aren't moving too fast either. It's just good to hear something from them again. :)]

Sorry this post comes so late in the day, my email has been down.

Until next time,

Alles Gouda,

Yvonne
