[status] The wind decreased through the day and we rigged and deployed the gennaker around 9:30. Have been sailing all day with full main and gennaker in winds between 10 and 13 knots. Seas are pretty calm, not flat smooth but a very small swell and waves. Been still making good progress but this evening we are slowing quite a bit.
Beautiful settled weather, sunny (starry) and warm and we are both well rested and in fine spirits.
Looking at the weather developments in the future we will probably not stop at Gold Coast and will continue on to Newcastle or even Pittwater, need to check with the authorities if that?s an option. Christmas party appointments must be kept!
[speed] 6.0 knots

[weather] 10 knots ESE, 20% cloud cover, 0.5m waves from the SE
