All’s great, still motoring away, little to no wind or fish but moral is high. Its getting quite warm and sunny now, we even gave the AC a blast today during happy hour! Crossing into the tropics tomorrow, so a little tropics party will be in order.
 
Fuel consumption calculated today giving us 8.35 litres per hour at 1300 rpm, averaging about 6.5 knots, giving Elvis a range of 1560 nautical miles with her 2000L of diesel.
 
The MF radio is up and running again, we called into the Oyster world rally net with our position, much to their surprise as we are not participating.
 
Nathan and Pam are cooking up a serious curry at the moment, smells great.
