As for sailing and arriving in time at the entry of the pass into Kiritimati, I had a serious talk with MaRe. Here are the minutes of discussion.<\/p>\n
I asked her why she sails so slowly and doesn’t arrive in time at the WPT Kiritimati SW to make it through the pass into the lagoon on the 6th in the early afternoon hours when we have a good view to the seabed to see the bommies.<\/p>\n
She explained that she was wondering why the wind is so little and that she tried to see from the top of her mast Mr Wind-ow to ask him for wind. However, he was not to be seen at all. When she then looked for Mr Lin-ux, to help her searching for Mr Wind-ow and peck his lazy bum for more wind, she suddenly recognized rather far E of us the money with the tin tool is steeling the wind. It just blocks the wind that nothing comes through to her. Of always the same nasty guy!<\/p>\n
At about 0700 I decided to do some cloud riding to sail a bit faster. However, clouds are locally limited, thus we want get wind for the time we need it. It was a great ride, but far too short.<\/p>\n
At noon we are still some 40 NM away from the SW WPTi place close to Kiritimati. With several to many AWA adjustments I tried to get somehow faster to the SW WPT. Still we have only an SOG of 1.5 – 3.5 KN.<\/p>\n
“Please Mr Lin-ux can to see, if there is some wind, wind for me,
\nNot only peck the bum of the Wind-ow guy
\nBut also the one of the other one”<\/p>\n
I can this song to me Mr Lin-ux (melody: Mr Postman, The Beatles)<\/p>\n
Now I need to see what Mr Lin-ux can do for me!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
