[status] Motorsailing. Looke like we will be motoring for the foreseable future, as we don't see any good sailing wind in the forecasts. Hoping to get north of that low due next week over Vanuatu. But also need to conserve fuel given all of the expected motoring, so we're running the engine at lower RPMs than normal. Getting a little boost from the southerly wind but don't expect that to last. Pleasant temps and didn't need a jacket yesterday when the sun was out. Found a squid stuck to mainsail.

[status]Anchored at Fulunga. Dived the pass and the false pass had a rather large reef shark that got a bit to inquisitive for our liking at the entrance but buggered off when I slapped the water as it got near. Lots of fish and good coral.
