[status]It was a sad farewell to fantastic Chesterfield Reef yesterday morning - what a brilliant time we had there. We are now underway to the land of koalas and kangaroos, the final leg of Kiapa's Pacific Ocean Crossing which started 5 years ago. While the sailing conditions are good, the 2k counter-current is slowing down the gallop somewhat!

The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.
