We are motoring with flat seas, clear blue sky, and next to no wind. Hard to believe after the wind and waves of the last days, but exactly as forecast. The barometer has risen and we're in a high pressure zone. Just hope we get enough wind to sail at least for a while over the next couple of days, and then the winds will fill in again off the coast of NZ.
Flat seas mean that we can cook more interesting meals, and even read a book, so it is a comfort zone if nothing else.
Last night we had clear skies and were making excellent progress, overtaking the nearest boat. The fastest of our group will arrive in NZ on Tues morning, whereas we will probably get there some time on Wed. afternoon.
Our position at 0500 GMT 1st Nov is 27 56 S and 177 06 E Over half way there.
