We left yesterday morning from Stanley, Tasmania, bound for somewhere on that big island called Australia to our north. Plan A is Eden, but we’ll see where we end up. So far, it’s not bad. We motored all day yesterday. Now the wind is heading us a bit and it’s not ideal. Oh well.
Hey, we heard something great yesterday as we were leaving Stanley. It seems that the fishermen have a name for us sailors: WAFIs. Wind Assisted F*&kin’ Idiots! I love it. I don’t know why I’m not insulted. Maybe it’s an “if the shoe fits” kind of thing. -Rich
