[status] On passage to Valdivia, Chile from Auckland NZ.
Slow progress yesterday over flat seas and under a clear blue sky. We have been motoring for the last few hours to try to get out of the wind hole in the lee of NZ. This may have worked as the first signs of a SE zephyr are appearing. Settling into the watch system and working our way through the fresh salad and vegetables. This light start is very good for Ana who is enjoying being upright and eating!

For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), it's always ourselves we find in the sea.
