Nice sailing in 15-20 kts, gusting to 25, just forward of the beam. All of us had to find our long pants and jackets, hard to believe it but we are freezing at night. Must be in the low 70's. No fishing as the freezer is full of Mahi. Excellent Mahi dinner last night. Listening on the SSB to other boat west of us getting gale force winds. Hoping we make it to Aitutaki, less than 200 nm at a course of 250, before the system reaches us.[END]
