Having a swell time

19 October 2010 | Distance to Bundaberg - 600 nm
Wind out of the East at 10 - 15 knots, 2m swell
Increased swell from two directions made it quite confused and lumpy last night and this morning. We're making good progress though under spinnaker (averaging over 6 knots). We are 100 nm from the top of the Chesterfield Reefs and plan to run down the western side tomorrow. This should make the seas much smoother and put some south in our course. All well on board. Ray has just made some bread for lunch. About to watch our midday movie.
Caught a small tuna yesterday, but released him to grow a little more. Still waiting for some Mahi Mahi.
