What was once just another Low and then a Tropical Disturbance has now been named a Category 1 Cyclone Uesi which by all accounts will continue South for a few days and then head South West towards Bruce and Anita's place and should not interrupt our Westward passage. Indeed we have been promised moderate to fresh East to South East winds for another seven days beyond which conjecture becomes mere guesswork. We continue under single reefed main and jib poled to leeward for a comfortable five to six knots in a quartering East to South East breeze around twelve knots. A quick check confirmed our maintenance dosage of caffeine so AL's stash should remain intact.
