Developed auto pilot problem. Goes off about every 30 minutes, so we have to babysit it continually. Better than driving continually. Two car carriers passed on way to Brisbane. Both were right on our rhumbline to North Cape. But we're on their rhumbline to Brisbane. Now that we are closing NZ, we will be looking out for lots of ship traffic.

All this is as of 0630UTC 17 Oct 2015
