Easter Island passage - Day 1

Left Puerto Villemil around 11am. We got in about 8 hours of slow sailing till the winds shutdown in the evening. Ended up motoring all night. Filled our tanks running the watermaker while the engine was running. A little after sunrise the winds filled in enough to start sailing -- slowly. But it is nicer than listening to the engine rumble. We are on a starboard tack, moving SE.
All's well - OK almost all is well. My back hurts and Chris' toe is looking a little ugly.
