Sailing to catch the Leaders

As I indicated yesterday my Easterly course brought me in an area with weaker winds. My turn more to the west did throw me back and the boast that before were sailing in the west came Eastwards and could pass me. 


Last night had a reasonable progress as I was in wind comparable to the leaders. This morning early the WP scheduler put the boat on the heading towards the next gate. 
I discovered that a change in sail however increased the speed with 0.3 kts. 


My Rank this morning is 259 in a fleet of 873 boats.
