[status] Five boats anchored at North Minerva Reef. Looking forward to seeing the sun again, if it still exists. Weather forecast in New Zealand not looking comfortable for a passage, so may delay departure until a cold front crosses NZ and a new High is about the longitude of Tasmania whenever that might be. No problem as long as weather at Minerva Reef continues to be fine. Having trouble finding a place to cast our ballots, however.

The sea is the same as it has been since before men ever went on it in boats.
