Motoring in light winds. No help from sails this morning. Pretty nice ride. 688 miles to Noumea, but looking at turning towards Fiji. Stay tuned.
<p>Nice motorsailing yesterday in light wind. Rough sail last night.</p>
Departing Sydney for Noumea this morning. Warm air, warm water, here we come! We'll check in here daily (communications permitting) and report weather along the passage.
Sittin' in Sydney, waiting for weather. We're looking at Wednesday (5 May) now for our passage to Noumea. Fingers are crossed. Boat is mostly ready.


We're at anchor in the river in Bundaberg. We'll clear customs tomorrow. Rough day today. Don't want to think about it now. Want to drink and then sleep!
We're in Noumea, leaving for Bundaberg tomorrow at first light. We're looking forward to what looks to be a mostly windless, calm passage. Oh no, have I gone and done it now?
We're in New Caledonia! We're sitting here with our Q flag flying, sipping a nice white wine. Hopefully we'll get checked in tomorrow.

Seas are moderating and it's getting to be less uncomfortable. Making great speed. Burnin' up the miles and the Mecklezine. Can someone please remind me why we do this!?
Not the most comfortable passage so far, but not too bad either. We're making good speed.
