Next Step - 9th March 2020

Another day on the Pacific and the wind continues to be in our favour. We seem to have a few small leaks from the deck area on the boat which will need sorting when we get in to Hiva Oa. Today was another unsuccessful fishing day, never mind we still have plenty of time to continue trying. We have not seen any wildlife other than lots of flying fish some of which still like to try and get on board! The afternoon was spent relaxing, listening to music and reading. In the evening I made a deconstructed shepherd's pie with powdered mash potato, it was really good. As we went into the night watches the wind seemed to get up a bit and the waves were becoming a little bigger so we took in a couple of reefs in the main and the genoa.
