Day 2

18 51’S. 174 20’E.

439nm to go

4.15am

Well we are still at it the seas are still really really rough and its taking its toll, neither of us is getting much sleep and my body is starting to ache from trying to hold on so hard.

Around 9am the seas finally settled down some although we are still rolling from side to side pretty bad.

And now the seas have picked up again we have the main sail out now which has settled the boat down a little and doing over 7knts but it’s windy and rainy, this is so not fun.

The Captain and myself I think are just really burned out and we sure will enjoy being home where we can recharge are batteries for awhile.

I have had my hand line out but not the rod as its just way too rough, but we have had a few flying fish on deck which I have put on the hook but nothing is biting, maybe the fish are too burned out like us and they don’t want to play anymore as well.

Well tomorrow is another day.
