Pacific Ocean, 139NM W of Niue
Overnight the wave train settled to the new wind direction, and the cloudy conditions dissipated. As result, we enjoyed quite a smooth ride under a starlit sky.
Winds are light making for slow going. But if conditions stay this smooth, what’s an extra day at sea?
In the morning hours we were passed by catamaran O2, and the whole day the Polish vessel Matilda has been creeping closer.
- Distance today: 100NM
- Lunch: quinoa salad
- Engine hours: 0

Niue Radio just called all sailing vessels in harbour. I assume they'll be told to move to the lee of the island. They're not unloading the supply ship today either
