We must free ourselves of the hope that the sea will ever rest. We must learn to sail in high winds.

Day 25 We've managed to avoid that tropical low, thanks to Bruce, our weather guru. Instead of thunder storms and blustery strong winds, we've had a cracking day of sailing, with blue skies, steady winds and flat sea, taking us eastwards. Today I decided to have a go at sextant calculations, and what with Lucas plying us with Spanish words, my head now hurts. It hasn't had to work like this for a long time.

After a lovely couple of weeks in Abaiang we sailed back to Tarawa to provision and clear customs and immigration. Horrible exposed bouncy anchorage. Looked like headwinds most of the way to Majuro but that was the prevailing wind so we went anyway.
