Timshel - Galapagos to Marquesas Day 17



Rather variable winds today - first two little rain showers brought little increase in wind, next one had us going 10 knots before managed to reef! Proceeded all day with main reefed to first batten to avoid being caught out. Like a Breeze must be in Hiva Oa by now and others are planning their arrival, but it will be a while yet for us. We still have lots of limes - from 1795 British warships were required to carry lime juice for prevention of scurvy hence British sailors are called "Limeys" (by Americans) - so we should be OK.
