Today the sea is very smooth. Wind waves of 1 (0 +10 cm high) and a swell which is hardly felt.

With only 1700 RPM she runs almost 7 KN.

The sky gets mostly likely fully overcasted. This the sea looks grey. Not as nice now compared to when we started this morning. There is was sunny.

Temperature is pretty down. In the morning, at the navigation table, I logged 14 degC! I’m wearing 2 T-shirts and nice and warm cotton zip-neck sweater I got as a present from Paul the electrician and I’m feeling a bit cold in the meantime. I want to go back to the barefoot route where it is warm, and I only need a T-shirt!

In a bit less than an hour we reach the entry point of the approach to Auckland when coming from North. From there it’s still some 12 NM to the Bayswater Marina.
