wave powered boat

The height of the wave is approximately 1.5m. I have moved 30' west since yesterday.
This boat has one traditional and three inflatable life jackets. You'll find the traditional life jacket in the cockpit as a cushion but every time I lay down I use it as a pillow. This is a little bad manner of mine. I'll be safe if I have it near in case of emergency, but I'm using it this way. Although, this boat can't produce enough speed, I'm sailing smoothly and taking all possible measures as a crew.

The wind is strong and the waves are high. My boat has recorded by multiplier effect a speed of 2.9kn.

Japanese-speaking broadcasts in Hawaii are slowly fading. I still can't receive signals from an AM radio station in Japan. How I wish I could hear a baseball game! I can't wait for one.

The green bananas I received on departure have become pretty ripe. Perhaps tomorrow is the last day they'll be good for eating. There's a lot left over though…

I shampooed with salt water for the first time this voyage. It really does feel good, as expected.

Today I saw a beautiful albatross.
