[s]We had a nice quiet Christmas at anchor at Funafuti but with the monsoonal westerlies heading towards Tuvalu it is time get going north. Motoring over a slight glassy swell. 34C in the saloon. Caught another mahi mahi just after leaving the atoll. About 1050 nm to go if we actually followed the rhumb line.

[status] It wasn?t my best Christmas ever. Maybe worse than the time I got a turtle-keck sweater from my parents instead of the erector set I wanted! It seems to be getting better now with the wind dropping and the seas confused but calming a bit. We have 137 miles to go to the Bay of Islands area.

[status] Merry Christmas Everyone!!! Well, our days of pleasant motor sailing are over. We had about eight ours of pleasant sailing yesterday, then the front crossed us. Wind went form 20 knots from the north to a 20 knot southerly within about 5 mintues. This made for interesting seas! Flying along now in very uncomfortable seas, heading for North Cape to try to get in the liegh of some of the wind and seas. It?s 220 miles ahead still. We hope to make Opua the morning of the 27th. We?ll see if that happens.

[status] we actually arrived quite a while ago (11 Dec) after a 16 day passage from Taihae, Nuku Hiva. A challenging, and tiring passage, but overall good. We're here in Radio Bay, Hilo, Big Island Hawaii. We're working on the boat of course, shopping, and spending time with Mizzy's family. All good! We expect to be here in Hawaii for a few months. Peace and Joy to all, at this holiday season.

[status] Arrived safely in Robe this afternoon (Monday) and have tied up in the marina. It was a lovely sailing day with northerly winds from 8 to 12 knots. Came across craypots only once we were south of Cape Jaffa; and only a few in number. It looks like we may have to enjoy the delights of Robe for a couple of days while the southerlies blow. Currently working on the port engine, in the hope that this time we fix the overheating issue.
