460 miles to go to Australia!

Russ and Laurie
After a sporty evening with brisk winds interspersed with lulls, we've made good time and had some great sailing. It's a bit lumpy with a low pressure off of New Zealand pumping waves our way, but they seem to be smoothing out now and the wind is finally shifting to the Southeast. We're looking forward to putting the Gennaker up again later today, but as we're going 9-10kts on white sails we're not sure its going to be necessary! We've sailed with Celebrate all night, but Charlie is a bit under the weather so unfortunately they're dropping back to give him a smoother ride. With Kathea up north and NDS Darwin south of us, we hopeful we'll have VHF company again soon as we converge on the next waypoint!
