[status] As of 2000 2015-08-30 UTC: Left Pago Pago for Wallis yesterday. Had a great time there visiting friends (Michael, Kendra, and Gavin) who moved to Pago a few years ago. Good sailing trip so far. Wind and waves behind us. Had little bit of excitement yesterday when the rudder post for the monitor windvane sheared at the foot. Fortunately we did not lose the rudder, as it was attached with a safety line. Using electric autopilot now.
