Day 4- Passage Bermuda to Caribbean

We're still cruising along at 6.5 to 7 knots and made 168 nm in the last 24 hours. The waves are very slowly diminishing. We've had a very bumpy ride for the past four days due to confused 8 - 10 ft waves. We lost our boogie board as a big wave swept it off the deck. And a fiddle (the lip along the edge which keeps things from sliding off the edge) broke off one of the galley counters. I guess it was just getting too much use as we're all hanging on where ever we can. Pretty minor issues. The wind generator and solar panels are both getting a work out and are keeping our batteries charged. I've been using a pressure cooker almost everyday. I like how fast it cooks and even more appreciate the locking lid in these conditions. The girls are starting to come back to life after not feeling 100% for the first couple of days. Its funny they have no problem playing, doing projects (like making kites with Uncle Sterl) or watching movies but instantly feel sea sick when the school books come out...
