A very relaxing days sail. The skies were blue and the wind/seas continued to abate. We were treated to gentle sailing across light seas under a 100% blue sky. Beautiful. The only downside was the wind was closer than I wanted to sail so we drifted off course by about 20 degrees.
The steering gear lashup continues to hold well. Inquiring about our replacement charger I have learned Lagoon are also sending a replacement pin for us. That’s nice. It won’t stop me having some spares machined but I appreciate the gesture.

The winds died down overnight and we’ve been motoring since yesterday evening. The winds have clocked round and we’re back on the rhumb line. In fact, they’ve clocked round enough that we may just get the Code Zero out today.
333nm to Opua.
