[status] We’ve been motor sailing with a Sou’Easter all day, it has recently gone straight south over the past couple hours. The sea has looked like black liquid metal all day long, and the sun looks like one mega magnet taunting the sea upwards in arbitrary formation – fun to look at, not fun to sail in. Dinner tonight is pizza that we bought from the Casino Supermache in Noumea. Damn good supermarkets there!
All well on board.

[weather] It’s getting so cold!! Back to a straight southerly 15-18knots (approx), 50% cloud. Sea state 1.5-2 metre choppy swell. Tim-otei’s wristwatch has a Baro which says: 1022. Our boat Baro says 1024 still, needs calibration obviously.
