[w]Wind 7-9 kts from SE. 50% cloud cover but mainly fair. Sea slight with 1m swell
[s]Finally, after 37 hours of motoring, the engine went off at 17.20 yesterday and we had good sailing in an E to ENE 10-12kt breeze though the night. The wind dropped at dawn so we are back under engine but only 19 miles fro Minerva Reef so should be anchored there by late morning. All well aboard.[END]
If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
