Only 10nm until we have completed our Pacific Crossing and over 11,000 nm sailed to date...

We have have had a pretty fast last 3 days averaging 170nm per day with 3-4 metre seas but it has been cracking sailing and QM has been a star. Very much looking forward to a nice cold beer and a shower at Port Bundy.

Still no fish and 4 lures lost to some sea monsters.....

Australia here we finally come!!!...All quite emotional...
