The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.

Departed Chesterfield Reef at 10.30am yesterday. After a very gentle motor across a calm sea, the breeze arrived at 22.00 and we have had good sailing since, the wind backing almost easterly so we are now broad reaching. Slightly rolly but otherwise all well aboard[END]
