After a boisterous first 24 hours including squalls to >30knts, the wind and seas have died away to virtually nothing. We have been motoring for about 16 hours now, but for a few hours this morning we had conditions suited to playing with a new (to us) sail. #2 gennaker.
It was fun until the breeze changed directions and flew away…. motoring again now…. sigh….
Only 20 hours or so until we pass through Vanuatu.
