Tradewinds?

We are scooting along and trying, Not very well, to limit the rolling. We have genoa and staysail out and drawing. Some Engine assist to help the steering and we are doing around 14 knots.

These are not yet the real trade winds but are providing a connection to them. We should be seeing 20 - 25 its from the ENE to E in a day or so. For now we will take the NNE 30kts as a way to get South if only that N swell of 3-4m would start to come round!
