Picton Castle at sea; Friday 24 September (apparent) 2010 בס"ד

Awesome morning watch. We have had reduced sail to slow us down a bit so that we can enter Suva in the morning, but after half an hour (in which we had candy), we were going too slow so we spent a lot of watch loosing and setting sail and bracing. I loosed the main tgallant and royal and the main tgallant staysl. Our sail handling is sharp and it shows. Cleaned galley and my only job was to do wakeups and final shipcheck. We can see Suva and we should arrive at the pilot station at 0700, ship's time. Right now on the PC it is 0430 on Friday 24 September, but off the ship it is 0330 on Saturday 25 September. We'll be switching sometime today. The 12-4may wake up at 0700, or they might let us sleep, depending.
