To reach a port we must set sail. Sail, not tie at anchor. Sail, not drift.

[status]A nice gentle easterly sail between 5-8knots, with winds between 8-12 knots. Only a couple of hours before we reach South Minerva, which we will go into as we went into North Minerva last year. Another gorgeous sunny day. It is definitely warming up - the clothes are getting lighter and lighter.

[s]Choppy. Bouncy. Slow. We're motoring. Sailing. Motor-sailing. Nothing works. We're 137 miles out from the reef passage. At this rate, we'll be lucky to get there within our lifetimes! OK, seriously, still hoping for Friday morning.[END]
