Madrona approaching Vanuatu in light winds

Hi,

Just a quick message to say hi. We've had a good sail so far. The wind lightened during the night. We are now only 80 miles from Anatom, Vanuatu, and making 3 to 3.5 knots in 8 to 9 knots of wind and a 2 m swell out of the SW.

I will pull down a GRIB file to see when we might get wind again. Clear sky and humid. All is well here. Lots of reading happening on board. Tamsyn reading Narnia again. Griffyn reading his readers. Carrie has started The Song of Ice and Fire. And I'm reading Thuvia, maid of Mars.
