Its 6am and my watch again. Surely I just got to bed, but no, I reluctantly drag myself back on deck. I feel like I've been partying all night and got involved in brawl on the way home.
We left Minerva Reef yesterday bound for Suva in a lumpy malevolent swell. We have 269 miles to go to Fiji. I while away my watch dreaming of a long sluicing shower, cold beer and a crunchy salad on the deck of the Suva Yacht club, then lying in a bed that is not moving, and sleeping all night, uninterrupted.
Meanwhile back to current business. Wind 12 knots SSE, course 288T, cloud 60%, occasional squall,bar: 1013.7, 3m swell, lumpy, speed 5.7.
