Fiji-Vanuatu Day 2

We had a much better day yesterday. The weather was
warm and clear and wind velocity lessened to a
pleasant 15kts and the sea state improved also. I
got the gen-set running again without too much
trouble the sea water pump impeller went bad
and needed to be replaced. An hour of hot and
sweaty work in the engine room and it started
up without problem. It has been slow going without
the jib and we have been mostly motor-sailing.
The Admiral beat me soundly at Scrabble (twice)!
Today looks like more of the same and we should be
in at first light tomorrow.Current position is
19 28S, 172 22.6E speed 7.0 kts Course 239M Wind
is about 15 kts ESE Sea state remains sloppy with
6 foot swells from the south. 150 miles to go.
