[weather] 18-20kt ENE, 2m swell from SE, 90% cc, Bar 1018
[status] Sailing to Savusavu. Made 170 NM in 24 hours. Seas have calmed down this am. Just hit a few squalls which took the ESE winds we had been getting to 60 degrees. With just the main with one reef, we were doing 7 kt. Settling back now with the squalls passing, so we will fly the genoa again soon.

The cabin of a small yacht is truly a wonderful thing; not only will it shelter you from a tempest, but from the other troubles in life, it is a safe retreat.
