We switched courtesy flags today - from French to Cooks. We caught more fish. We passed a lonely boat today "Chtimagine III" That process took 8 hours from when we first saw it. We offered sashimi - they had plenty ;-) See you in New Zealand they yelled across.

We are looking at a sea of butter - just like the doldrums near the equator. The march of clouds - a parade just for us. It's a sun set full of magnificence and begs for epic music. Loud and bombastic and to actually live it.

One passage to change your outlook on life again.

Glorious - gentle - gold on the horizon.

60 nm to go to the place where legends arrived to spend decades in solitude.

Suwarrow discovered in the 19th century with many echoes of long journeys. No wind -on a Beaufort scale zero BUT ooozles of joy ! Still very deep waters though - 3 miles down. SUNSET ALERT - screaming on VHF 16 with no one around.
