[Heading) 120 deg Mag
[speed] 5.5 to 6.5 kts
[weather] wind Southerly or SSW 15 kts variable. Only just swing to this direction. Blue sky, 20 % cloud. Nice in the sun.
[status] Finally, the wind has swung, just enough, for us to actually be steering directly towards our destination. Please may it last, or dare I say it, even improve. First time in this passage, we are actually pointing where we want to go. NZ. A beautiful day out here, ( if one has to be out here) although it is getting cooler as we get South. All in good spirits.
Regards,
John, Frances and Robert
