[speed] 6 kts
[heading] approx 190 Mag
[weather] SSE wind of 25 to 30 knts. 90% cloud cover. Rained last night but OK now.
[status] Time 9:45 am Friday. We are very uncomfortable in very strong head winds. So wet and uncomfortable here. Also making very slow progress. Passed really close to Norfolk Island late yesterday, before the weather turned to custard. Now we just keep going and get home when we get there. Also having poor radio / sailmail reception. I assume it is because of the poor weather.

Regards,
John, Frances and Robert
