The EJ's Voyage

250nm to go!
 
We are all getting a little tired and looking forward to get to Hiva Oa!
 
We are still averaging 6kts boat speed. Always the odd wave that makes us roll. A bit tedious.
 
Spinnaker was up for a few hours yesterday and we are proud to say that our Captain's repairs are holding very well. He is the King of the sewing machine!
 
No more result on the fishing front.
 
There is a boat ahead of us, we think it is PULSION, and another one astern of us on the horizon line. We don't know who that is.
 
We will have to slow down so we don't get to our destination at night. It means that we will very likely be at our anchorage Friday by daylight.
 
Mike busies himself with maintenance jobs. I bake pita bread or cook the last of our fresh vegetables. In fact, time goes by quite quickly.
 
All fit and well onboard.
 
A demain
Mike and Catherine
