[status] After our record slowest passage in terms of average daily distance made good, we chose landfall at Daniel's Bay to rest in its slightly less rolly location and stretch our legs on the long walk to the waterfall. Missions accomplished, this morning we moved around to Taiohae. There is a long list of tasks to complete prior to our departure for Hawai'i, most important of which is figuring out how air is getting into the fuel lines. Of note: this is our last anchorage in the South Pacific! (Ouch, that hurts.)

[status] Continuing to motor-sail towards Opua. Today is very overcast with the sky and ocean both grey. We have a very comfortable motion although the constant engine noise is tiresome. Wearing earplugs and ear muffs when we are off watch below to sleep. All is well on board and looking forward to our arrival.
[speed] 6.2
[heading] 165T
[weather] 10-16 kts NE 1m swell from the NE 100% cloud cover.
[END]
