Made it to Seisia yday and enjoyed shore run. V beautiful around here and the sky was lit up last night, first by a glorious sunset and then by huge fire in distance ashore. (apparently the latter is common, as used by locals to clear a scrub for agriculture... And make it easier to spot snakes!)

Just hangin' here again today, both for a brief rest and because winds are v light! We can resupply with a bit of diesel and, I hope, beer here, although latter may be a long shot given local alcohol restrictions :-(....

Forecast looking good for crossing Gulf west tomorrow (Tues), although may be a bit light Weds... Onward and westward!

PS still no cell phone reception for us since Cooktown, hence occasional YIT updates by sat only, sorry!
