Just crossed the equator! Marquesas Bound.

We are Marquesas Bound (750 more miles!) and just crossed the equator! Go to WorrallWind.blogspot.com for details.

UTC 1155
Latitude: 00 00.000
Longitude: 130 15.364

Full moon, full sail on a close reach, 78 degrees, 96 percent humidity. We have clear sky, 11 knots of wind from the south east. boat speed of 4 knots. course over ground 219 degrees true in a 1 meter swell. The water is warm. We didn't go swimming but all stuck our hands in the water, licked the salt off our fingers, and enjoyed a 1990 vintage bottle of Dom Perignon Champaign. We gave Neptue a few drops and sank the bottle. It couldn't have been more perfect. I guess we are now officially shellbacks.
