A dozen miles
off, land in sight!
Not much to
report last few days, light breezes so much motor-sailing. Days filled with
sanding, varnishing and polishing. Plus enough sailhandling exercises with
reefing and storm jibs etc to keep all from getting
lethargic.
Highlight has
been the Mahi Mahi and 2 small Tuna caught yesterday, small so not much to write
home about (although I guess I just did?) but the aft-deck sashimi lunch and
Evan's baked tuna dinner was very satisfying.
We'll spend
one week at the marina here doing final preps for the next few thousand miles of
sailing and the Hong Kong to Vietnam Cat 1 race as we circle the China Sea CCW
back to Singapore.
