1745 miles to go - yawn
A bit rough during the night. When Noi sleeps she
lays down on the salon deck. We had a small broach and she lifted her head to
see what was going on, at that precise moment a pumpkin flew off the table and
landed on the pillow her head had just vacated!! That’s what happens when you
call someone a melon head. Anyway that was the highlight of the last 24
hours.
We are now in contact with 3 other boats, Qwyver,
Tigre and Nae Hassle via SSB radio every day. They are of course behind us
ranging from 300 miles to 1,200 miles. All basically going in the same direction
with Tigre the only one going to the Tomatoes, the rest of heading to the
Marquesas. There is another SSB radio net with about 15 other boats all going in
much the same direction. Lucky we don’t keep bumping into each
other. |
