tangaroa

For the first time in more than 50 days, the expedition experienced a day completely without wind. The day was spent washing, swimming and relaxing. For once it was possible to go for a real swim without risking being left astern. Torgeir says: "One day like this is just a perfect day - one week of this would definitely challenge our patience. Without wind we are bound to drift with the ocean current, which at the moment is bringing us too far south". Luckily the wind came back the next day, and they are now sailing westwards again, approaching Polynesia day by day!
