For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), it's always ourselves we find in the sea.

We planned this trip in a way that would have continually improving weather. Its nice to end on a high, and you certainly don't want to hit the rough stuff close to NZ. ...but we didn't plan it to be this good!

[status] Light wind from south and the bearing to NZ is SSE so slow going. Rainy and overcast with some rumbles of thunder. I expect to be in this system for a day and the winds will be SE behind it. I hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner yesterday!

[status] Left Code 0 up till 0300 in calm star lit night with bright phosphorescence. Good sleep for everyone and shifts went quick.
Luckily performance of crew improved before Captains review meeting with 1 x tuna landed and 1 x Huge Blue Marlin dropped (phew) after spectacular hookup 25m from stern. The hookup occurred as Robbie was discarding the eggshells from breakfast...Burley ???
Now motoring in 8kn NW cloud getting lower by the hr..... 1/3 of the way home. Crew happy.
