25 Jan Clear Skies and Sharp Horizon
Sunset
Last nights sunset raised hopes of fair, consistent winds until morning. You know, red sky at night and all that.
The clear skies and sharp horizon also promised near perfect conditions for a round of star sights. Navigation up till then had been spotty what with clouds and rolls seas.
As it happened, both came to pass. Decent winds all night and a definitive fix on my position using Rigel, Fomalhaut, and Avior.
