On passage from Noumea to Brisbane. The wind has disappeared again. Currently motoring. Expect wind to fill from the north within next 12 hrs. Still amazing VHF propogation. I talked with Moololobar MRC on VHF 243 miles away and got a weather forecast. Additionally picking up ships with full AIS data over two hundred miles away. The furthest contact was a navaid 404 miles away
