On the rhumb line to Bali

We are offshore 30miles west of Gnarloo, beautiful day sailing. Alone now - the last yacht in the fleet we saw was Tradewinds V that took off in the following winds this morning. It is 15 feet longer than us.

Caught tuna and mackeral yesterday. Ate sashimi but the caterer hadn't bought wasabi. The two stowaways are fitting in nicely and they don't eat much.

We missed our second target latitude by 2hrs 44mins, so now have to average 6.6 knots to make the next. We are now 50 kilometers offshore, on the rhumb line to bali with less than 1000nm to go.
