The Ocean Rowing Society tracks where I am every day.  They use information from a special machine I have in my boat.  In case I need them, they always know where I am.

Tropical Storm Dalila settled down. 

At the end of the day yesterday, I was dry and warm.  I was looking forward to dinner.  Then a huge wave surprised me.  Five buckets worth of water splashed at me.  I had no place to hide or run.  The water left me drenched.

“I can’t go in like this,” I thought.  I need to keep the inside of the boat dry.  So I changed into fresh clothes and ate dinner.  I felt good.  This was a good chance to clean up.
