We are back in the Northern Hemisphere! Crossed the equator again, 4th crossing in 2 years. 55 nm to Tarawa, however if the weather to the north looks good we will press on to Majuro in the Marshalls, if not we'll hang in Tarawa to wait for the window.
Yachts ahead of us are reporting the Kiribatis are not issuing permits to the outer islands including Makin (Butaritari) island, sadly we will pass right by it on our way to the Marshalls.
