After a night of showers and little wind, dawn broke with low cloud and drizzle from the west.  The iron topsail (engine) has been steadily pushing the Bus along at 6.5 knots towards Niue where we expect to arrive early tomorrow.  Yesterday's run was 153 miles. This morning the skies have cleared with a light (8kts) easterly wind and slight sea.  Fab dinner last night, pan fried fillets of mahi-mahi, boat-made parsley sauce, creamed potatos and mixed veg.  All too full for desert!
