[weather]sky mainly clear - some high cloud sea 1,5 m wind E 12-15 knots temp 21 tonight !
[status] what a difference a day can make - started this morning with a Easterly filling in until we got 12-15 knots with not too bad a sea state so we all enjoyed a great days sailing with speeds in high 8?s and 9?s for a lot of it . Forecast suggests it will last through to tomorrow night when it starts easing but we will have chalked up some reasonable mileage by then - hopefully we will get some wind to carry us through to Opua but at this stage the last 100 nm looks rather light .
Hope to get in on Thursday before the front comes through Friday / Saturday .
