We have just finished transferring 120 small peanut butter jars of fuel from one fuel tank to the other - that's 60 litres for the uninitiated. We are doing an awful lot of motoring on this dog leg of a trip, but the alternative was banging and crashing and slamming into the weather to our east, and after about an hour, that kinda beating gets old real quick! So here we are in calm conditions, flat seas, the good engine is humming away and the miles are ticking down. Just a little over 300 to go! On a good day, that would be less than two days for us, but the good days are eluding us, so it will be closer to three. Thai Chicken curry is on the menu tonight, and I've been instructed to have a shower before the restaurant will serve me - another advantage of motoring - nice hot showers and we run the water maker to keep the tanks full.
