Pegasus on the way

After being landlubbers for so long, Pegasus is literally rolling along on her way to Port Vila, Vanauatu (previously New Hebrides). We left Opua at 11.45 Tuesday in calm wind but are now romping at 6-7 knots, poled out with the wind behind. Caught five fish but all skipjacks which we returned alive (very red meat - not v nice). So fish, fish everywhere but not a fish to eat. Position as of 0300H NZ standard time Wednesday (1500 GMT Tuesday) is latitude 34.02.098 and longitude 173.46.015. 1010Nm to go.
