The cabin of a small yacht is truly a wonderful thing; not only will it shelter you from a tempest, but from the other troubles in life, it is a safe retreat.

Rough! Fast! Rough! We'd sure trade some of our extra fast for a little
smooth right now. Have I mentioned that I hate passages?! (Bound for Lord
Howe Island - ETA Thursday before noon.)

[status]Another beautiful sunny evening. Due to a rip in the mainsail we are using an unusual sail plan (trysail+jib+reacher) but conditions happen to be perfect for it and we get to practice using all the special sails in nice weather! Still averaging 7 knots and the forecast looks good for the rest of the passage. Wind SE 12kn.
