From hardly enough wind last night where we had all 4 sails up, during the night the squalls came meaning Andrew and Wolfgang had to go out in the early hours of the morning to reef the mainsail and take down the mizzen. Both were safely in their lifejackets, harnessed and tethered to the safety lines as Sue took Imagine into the wind. The swell was about 2 to 3 metres and the sea was quite messy. After they were safely back inside we went back on course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cindy had been feeling good the last few days and hadn’t taken any seasick tablets but with the messy sea she suddenly had to lifejacket\/tether up and hung over the side to feed the fishes. She has since had some tablets and slept some and is currently on shift. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve been sailing with the mainsail and either the staysail or headsail for the rest of the day averaging 7 to 8 knots this afternoon. We’ve just reefed the mainsail and put the staysail out for the night which will slow us down but make it a better ride for the night as the wind has picked up again. It was predicted that we would get 2 or 3 days of no wind but fortunately we haven’t struck that yet and are making good progress to Brisbane.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
