[status]Day 6. Currently we're motor sailing but have mostly been sailing. Our fuel consumption has been very low as the motor is just trickling along. The weather so far has been just unbelievably good. Sunnier enough for hot showers during the day. Apart from having to wake up, the night watches are a pleasure especially with the full moon.
Current ETA into Auckland is looking like Saturday. All well onboard.[END]
There is nothing more enticing, disenchanting, and enslaving than the life at sea.
