G'day all, Swan Song is tied up on the Aloha dock at  the Hawaii Yacht Club.

We arrived yesterday at 1715 local  time.

18 days 1 hr 15 min 5.46 nm/hr
2654 nm
1052 gals 2.52  nm/gal So we could have made it without the extra
fuel...however I'm very  happy to arrive in Honolulu with ~700 gallons of
$2.25/gal Mexican diesel  still in the tanks

No major issues and few minor ones. Crew is still  speaking to each other
;-)
NO fish but lots of lures missing from the bag!  @ gallons of ice cream
left!!

Head seas/winds for the first 4 days  then mild for next ten and then the
wind/seas piped up for the final run  into Hawaii. Last day was winds to 35
kts and seas to 25'. We hand steered  the last 8 hours as the seas were
confused and very large steep faced. No  place for an autopilot...even Swan
Song's ;-)

No waves over the  stern so the boat was dry for the entire trip once the
head _seas/waves left  coming out of Cabo....25 kts on the nose plus 15'
seas
at 3-4 sec  period...ugly.

More details will follow after we get Swan Song from  passage configuration
back to cruising configuration.
