Wind light most of the day - very pleasant & relaxed. Sunny with some cloud but not a lot. No rainsqualls! Just mainsail & genoa.
Another day of ambling along - mostly at a mere 3-4 knots.
Saw a white-tailed tropic bird several times today & yesterday - I wonder if it nests in Kauai/Hawaii...?
Been looking over Pacific charts in more detail & checking over possible route from Marquesas to Australia -lots of possibilities
but will stay very flexible!
Also gradually getting around to having a look at radio connections, especially ground leads - means a lot of 'digging' for access
- so taking my time. Am being heard, but not as well as I should be. And Winlink connections have been impossible yesterday and
up to this evening - will see what happens when I try to send this...
Finished last of fresh meat for dinner tonight - made a curry with last aubergine & courgette.
Lovely moonrise over fairly calm sea....
