Passage To Niue

Day 2, 13 June 2012

We left Bora Bora at 10.00 local time which is - 11 hours (behind) UTC (GMT), on Tuesday the 12 June 12, heading for our next island called Niue.

Day 2

Log reading at noon is 16286

Noon to Noon distance = 110 miles

Distance to go 933 miles

Very light winds at present which are between 8 to 11 knots, We now have just the genoa up and a small amount of main to balance the boat, and we are making between 4 to 4.5 knots in the right direction.
The wind / weather forecast is still for the wind speed to increase over the next few days, so our passage speed should increase, we hope!!

Just a few sea birds, but nothing else.

Ship report

Karacool is level pegging with us at present just off to our starboard side.
