[status] Underway Tonga, 25 16 S - 178 43 W. Wind gone light and from behind, jibing down wind, very slowly. I guess relaxed sailing is not so bad once you accept the pace. We are used to moving much faster but have relaxed now and are taking it easy. Code Zero or spinnaker tomorrow! Or maybe drag a meat line and sun tan. Saw first life since departing today, fishing vessel crossed 1/2 mile off bow, he did answer the call and changed course, close enough for us. Nice and warm on the night watch. AGOB!

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
