Lines on Papaeete

After roughly 11 days at sea and 2251 nautical miles from Whangarei NZ to Papeete Tahiti, Iron Lady is resting comfortably at Marina Taina. I have been doing posts during our transit and Steve Dashew was kind enough to put them up on Setsail.com but without pictures. Over the next few days, I will try to get the posts up on our blog with pictures. as well as get to your comments.

Right now, it is time for a bit of rest – the last two days featured a stalled occluded front right on top of us reinforcing the southeast trades and we had winds of 20 to 35 knots and seas up to 4 meters forward of the beam. Iron Lady did great but sleep was hard to come by in the front cabin – time to catch up a bit.

Cheers
