Update

Coordinates:26 13 100 S 161 56 022 W
Bearing: nil
Boat Speed: nil
Wind Direction: SE
Wind Strength: 25 to 35 at present
Sea state: big seas

Crew health: happy

Fish caught: nil

Other points of interest: the good run of wind could not go on for ever
today increasing southerly backing to SE , strength up to high 30 knots today - it became more difficult and uncomfortable to maintain a good course and with night coming on we decided to put out the sea anchor again this is supposed to be fun - no point thrashing along all night in huge seas!!
looks like not the best wind for a day or so but we will see

message bit late today due to work on deck

PS no whales today
