Distance from Galapagos 243 nm.
Distance to Marquesas 2903 nm.
Nautical miles in last 24 hours 128.
All the forecasts show big storms in New Zealand and points south, which are sucking the wind out of our area. So no tradewinds until Wednesday was the last report!
So we're giving the motor a good run and using the fuel; we'll have to keep enough for getting into the anchorage. The plan is to motor southwest along the rhumbline and hopefully we'll be in a good position to use the wind once it returns.
All is well, keeping busy looking for wind, radioing other boats ahead and getting their weather info - there are quite a few of us out here.
