With 15-20 kts wind, all sail out for the first time in ages, seas down, and sun up Pegasus is tootling along nicely. Just passed Niue which we cannot now visit as a low pressure system is moving in Monday that will bring westerly winds and a lee shore. The five boats that are there are leaving today. Ever onwards thus. Position at 08:00 local time (19:00 GMT) is 19deg 10.69min S and 170deg 25.03 min W. 207nm to go. We will have to average 7kts to get in in daylight which will be a very close call and one we will probably lose as the wind is predicted to ease.
