[status]lots of maintenance to do during the last two days of light winds and calm seas. Not a rest and relaxation period! Joe took an exciting trip to the top of the mast to reeve a new rope after the main halyard chafed right through and I've spent a lot of time getting the sump off the port engine to find a crack in the oil pickup pipe. Looks fixable! Meanwhile the starboard engine is good to get us into harbour if we can't fix the pipe before we get to Rapa. All's well and we're back up to speed again with a light northerly breeze and calm seas.
