[status] 1700 hrs 15 May 2019. Today has seen a continuation of very benign sailing conditions. Light SW winds 8-12 kts. Highest we saw was 15 kts. Long period rolling SW swell of 1.5 - 2 mtrs. With wiind and swell behind us, we haven't taken any water on deck. We're averaging about 5.8 kts speed, which, considering the light conditions, that's not bad for our heavy vessel. Sun out all day, but still too cold to disrobe enough to work on my tan. All I can say is I hope Neptune continues to grace us with his kindness.
Saw another yacht this afternoon - "Takata" which left from Opua yesterday. It's headed for Minerva Reef.
Leilani's got dinner ready, so will sign off now. Stay tuned tomorrow.
Cheers
John
