Daybreak was herald by a beautiful sunrise (the best thing about the day). We have had 2m waves and 20knt winds just off the bow most of the day. This has meant a nice speed of 6kts, but an uncomfortable ride. Our day consists of do our watch (on the helm), have something to eat and drink then try to sleep. At least we have plenty of percooked meals. B has realised how draining it is trying to rest while being bounced around. We are trying to get as close to Fiji as possible before the wind swings to the east which will slow us down as we will have to tac a lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The day is ending with a beautiful sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
