[w]Wind light & variably East. 20% cloud. 1014 mbar (rising).
[s](Posted 0124UTC Aug 24) Uneventful passage through Torres Straits with fine winds and weather. Winds held E until last night; drifted along @2kts for hours, but finally fired up a few minutes ago. Combination of poor reception from Darawank & Brunei Sailmail stations and low battery power (wind & towed generators ineffective @10kts wind downwind) has made emails (like YIT reports) more challenging, so we may not be checking as frequently as usual, but we will be sure to report our safe arrival. ~900nm to Kupang.

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.
