Trundling along

Current position: 23 54' 4S and 161 47' 8E

Thank you, whoever turned on the fan, albeit for such a short period. At least we were able to fill the sails for a few hours and enjoy the great conditions. Sadly, it didn't last and the winds have dropped back down to about 5 knots.

However, rather that than what poor Fiji is experiencing at the moment. They are in the direct path of Cyclone Evan which has likely hit them today. This cyclonic activity is probably also the cause of our lack of wind. Anyone still back there, just hope you're battened down well and good luck.

Our new expected time of arrival is somewhat unknown at the moment and could change dramatically if we could just find some wind. We haven't heard from Pete today but that's not unexpected and we're not worried this time, conditions are good and he was coping well the last time we chatted.

Funny you mention plotting that. I am hoping to find out how to. So good to be kept in touch with your travels. Be safe. Glad it was sunny and warm.
