SENDING IT! Flinders passes in a whirr!

Absolutely flying!
We're crunching about 26-27knots; so almost 50km/hr reaching towards Tassie's coast!
Witty's at the helm and loving the big 35-40knot westerly; dubbed Witty's wild wester by Boxy!
Crew is bunched down the stern cos the bow is pounding through the waves, there are massive rooster-tails spilling down the deck!
We've passed Flinders Island (about 20km off Tas's N.E coast); no time to check out the giant Mt Strzeleki or it's gorgeous national park _ instead we just flew by. The sworms of dolphins in the gorgeous crystal waters can barely keep up with YuuZoo!
We've got the leaders in sight; with plans to keep sending the boat to the max.
It's 40mile to the coast and about 90 til Tasman light; home's in sight!
The crew love your support so keep it up, D.
