Actually, this is the only sunset we saw on the voyage north from NZ. Normally it was so cloudy that we didn’t see the sun set, or rise. But this one was nice. Keen geographers might note that we seem to be heading west rather than north. That’s because we were – to get northwest in the winds we were getting it was necessary to tack downwind, by heading alternately west then north.
