Lat S 32 35°/ long W 112 52°

December 5 Saturday Day 17, average speed 6.6 knots
Storm Warning, I read the weather report from Playa Ancha Radio. The area
is a couple of days to the east of our course, so much can happen before we get
there. But the weather is changeable, we have worked all night with our
sails because the wind was so variable, not in direction but in
strength. We have rolled out smaller sail, rolled in larger sail, taken in a
reef in the mainsail, taken two reefs in the mainsail, then the wind has subsided and
the procedure had to be done in the other direction. Is this a sign of a storm? We may
well see.
