I just put up all sail area I have to sail as fast as possible upwind. Later I will get swallowed by the calm lying in front of me. This is one of the very rare moments on this whole trip the Swan 44 performs really good: Upwind sailing at an apparent wind angle of 32° in moderate waves. Feels like flying over soft clouds with a speed of 6 kn in winds of 9 kn. Very pleasant!
