[status]The winds have finally picked up nicely and we are moving along towards Borneo. We should be arriving tomorrow morning. We are zipping along wing on wing and are having a nice comfortable sail. All well onboard except we have caught NO fish.... :(

[status] As windward passages go this wasn't bad. Apparent wind was between 50 and 60 degrees at 16 - 25 kts - more than we needed but we were reefed down accordingly. Seas were not too bad - 1.5 - 2.0M. There is lots of room for the Go West fleet in this bay which is gorgeous - white sand and crystal clear water. Check in is tomorrow morning after which it is party time!

Arrived Savusavu early this morning. Nice fast passage - under three days - and Victoria caught a walu just before arrival. A big treat as tied to a dock for a few days to catch up on some maintenance and prepare for guests. Fun to be back to a place where the staff remember us.

[STATUS]Port Jefferson, Long Island Sound. Long, uneventful motor-sail down Long Island Sound in light easterly. Great time on Shelter Island with friends David and Jill and productive stay in Dering Harbor on a Shelter Island Yacht Club mooring: got fuel at Picozzi's and washed Kite down at the yacht club dock - much needed, first major wash-down since June!
