Impulsive is 389 miles from Nuku Hiva so we should be there this Sunday or Monday depending on winds. If winds die down, we will fire up the iron geny and hand steer (we have no autopilot) so that we get there ASAP . We have finally found the trade winds below the equator and are sailing at 6 knots with 12 knots of wind on a beam to broad reach. The swells have become more gentle and have a longer period. We have all commented on how enjoyable the last couple days have been. Far different from the squalls and choppy seas we had up north.
