[status] Report at 0400 AEST Austalia Thursday 12 September. Departed Noumea, New Caledonia yesterday at 1pm. Have travelled 82 miles from Dumbea Pass, where we exited the Southern Lagoon and were greeted by 2 to 3 metre swells. The seas have calmed a little, and the wind has shifted from SSW to a more helpful SE. Approx 695 miles to run to Australia.
