After a very slow day again yesterday due to the lack of wind, it increased last night and so did our speed. It was a beautiful clear night, full of stars in the sky. We saw some beautiful shooting stars. A very pleasant sail averaging 7 kts SOG.
 
The wind is even stronger today and the waves therefore bigger but the boat sails nicely reaching 8 kts SOG. Clear blue sky again.
 
Tonight we should be half way through to Tonga.
 
We are both well.
 
Love
Mike and Catherine
