First day out of Bora Bora for Rarotonga
27 August 2007 | 150 miles SE of Bora Bora
Morgan MacKay
We are on our way to Rarotonga. Today marks Vanessa's first 24 hours away from land and in celebration, we set a new distance record for this boat of 155 miles from noon to noon! The boat is sailing great. The crew is having fun, but not performing at top level. I've got one hell of a head cold and Vanessa's getting a little queasy from time to time. We expect to make landfall in the Cook Islands by Thursday. -Morgan
