                | Malua is at 13:23.05N 42:56.34W at 1200 on 4/12/2012 Distance covered 1922 Distance to go 975 nm Daily run 120 There has been no wind since yesterday night.  We have been under 
power since then.  The engine is turning over ay 1500 rpm. The spead over 
the ground is just below 5 knots, with the wind speed indicator at 0.0  
Luckily the sea is flat with a long swell so it is easy on the boat.  The 
time we loose now will never be made up so we will arrive a day later.  The 
other boats in our area are also experiencing no to little wind while the ARC 
boat further north and more to the east have had 10 to 20 knots of wind. Time moves very slowly especially as it is hot and humid. A magical moment on Malua |
