February 27th 2004:

Email from the Ship: Wow! What an afternoon! By times we got huge waves- the bow of the ship plunged way down and one time I thought it wasn't going to come back up- but it did. We had to stay in our cabins for a little while for safety reasons. Most of our drawers and cabinets have outside hooks on them for rough weather. One of my drawers did not have a hook and when I came back to my cabin the drawer and all it's contente was scattered all over the floor.

We altered our course some in order to stay away from the worst of Hurricane Ivy. We sailed around the back of it. Our position today is S 33 W 178.We hope to be in Auckland by late tonight 3-1 or early tomorrow morn 3-2.
