Another day has gone by and very little wind helped propel us towards our destination. We had some westerlies but only 5kts or so; we motor sailed almost all day. Our fuel consumption has been very good running on average at 1600RPM for the last three days.

Still no fish caught and I don't see much sign of sea life around here; no birds or flying fish... Later we should be going over some sea mountains reaching 900 meters below sea level maybe that will bring us luck. In the mean time we have 310 miles to go with a current ETA to Opua-New Zealand as Sunday morning.
