[weather] 12-15 knots of SSW
[speed] 6-7 knots[status] I'm hoping we're into the wind system now that will take us all the way home, fingers crossed.. Its blowing directly from NZ, and there is a distinct chill in the air coming straight of Ruapehu (I'm sure..)- I actually pulled out a sleeping bag for a fleeting moment this morning, but having said that its ridiculously hot now and its not even 11am, so we're definately still in the tropics! We're still smashing west right now, but the wind is meant to gradually move through to the SE over the next 48 hours, and with that we will bend around and point for NZ- cant wait to be back on home shores with familiar faces, bikes, fresh fruit and veg, fine craft beers, and a toilet with legroom that isn't constantly tryin to buck you off!
