Slow start with not much wind. Off Tweed heads the wind increased to 10kts and we shut down the motors.
Just before dark the wind increased to 25kts from the north and we took the mainsail down to run on the jib overnight. speed dropped down from 12kts to 10kts where it stayed all night.
0100hrs 13Feb: Chart reveals lots of islands and rocks so a fair bit of attention to navigate them in the dark.
0900hrs Feb 13: Arrived in Coffs Harbour. Twenty seven hours with sleep, not feeling the best.
Slept for half of the day--exhausted.
Southerlies forecast for the next week or so.
