Position: 10:25.3 S 136:59.3 W COG: 260 SOG: 3.0 Current: 0.9 kn , 260 gr Sea temperature: 27.8 Waves: 1 m Wind: 7 N E Sailed last 24 hours: 108 (Motor through the night.) Distance to Fatu Hiva: 105 nm Weather: Very nice. Now sort of sailing with poled out genoa, and the cutter to the lee. Nice weather all night. And very warm. ETA: Sunday. But we shall have to run the engine for a while to get there, I suppose. The windsteering has been disconnected due to almost no wind. That means that we consume more electric power. A sunny day will help. No contact with Alutia on SSB this morning. Another night… Today tidying up the boat a little before landfall sometime tomorrow. Baking bread. Everything is well on board. |
