This morning with blue sky and only 10kts of wind, we put up the Jeniker (the big red sail out the front). After a couple of hours the temperature dropped clouds came over and we thought it was time to bring in the Jeniker. As the wind had increased slightly, we put the headsail back out and continued sailing. That didn&#8217;t last too long, before the sail started calapsing as we went over the large swell and we had to turn on the motor. We could have sailed with the waves but we would have ended up in Fiji.<br \/>\nEmma thought it was wash day, so out on the back deck she went with a bundle of clothes. She got a bucket out and it wasn&#8217;t long before the clothes were hanging on the line.<br \/>\nThe girls saw flying fish sailing off the crest of the waves.<br \/>\nWe have less than 200nm to reach Vanuatu waters. With another 100nm to Port Vila. Nearly there! This meant putting up the Q flag, Vanuatu flag and the New Zealand flag. Now we look official.<br \/>\nSent from Iridium Mail &#038; Web.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>+70 We ended up motor sailing most of the night.
