In Noumea. Overall we have had a nice passage; no major problems except for switching to the backup autopilot course computer in flat calm sea while motoring. Yes as expected lots of motoring but also some very very nice sailing. However the day before yesterday was a bit rough... boisterous sailing downwind in 25 to 30+knts with some smalls 3.5m breakers...perfect conditions for fishing I tough.
