When you see the Souther Cross for the first time, you understand now why you came this way... C, S, N and Young 


 Wahoo for snack (sashimi) and dinner - Yum!

At 0445 Sat Dec 4th posi: 23-33/62-49; 378nm to go, winds ~12 kts backed to S, SSE and back occa. motor sailed most of the night, sailed 3 hrs, added 12 gals fuel, 12 left on deck. Right now John and I are enjoying the shooting stars show, drinking mocha, and about to wake up the other watch who wanted to see the southern cross on our lee bow, above and south of Venus. Fying fish escaped Jonathan earlier, tho had it in his hands...wanted to go after the roe. After french toast by Frank we enjoyed sausage with pasta by John who seems to have taken over the galley. Nice. Double green flash with the large NE swells, a first for some. Good conversations, getting better. So there you have it...food and weather etc.
