Day 12 to the Marquisas

19 June 2008 | South Pacific

Day 11 saw 160 miles under the keel. Still well off our prior average. We were a trawler for the better part of the day with winds as low as 2 knots apparent. It was a beautiful day though and everyone aboard had fun doing celestial navigation, napping, reading and studying French. We are back under full sail now with maybe 10 knots apparent, 7 knots of way and a COG that is 20 degrees south of the mark. We're all hoping the wind backs tomorrow as it is supposed to.

Nobu says: "I'm getting used to no wind..."

Hideko says: "The Marquesas are getting more beautiful in my mind every day"

780 nm to go...
