Positive about Puyseger and process goals

Been totally becalmed off Puyseger for hours, just picked up a breeze
again. Can just see Stewart Island on horizon could still get there in
morning if we can hold some breeze.
One of the best things we have achieved on this leg has been keeping our
(and mostly my) head. The conditions, (repeated calms and changes) test
my patience to the absolute limit. ( Meltdowns, loosing it exploding
etc) We have made a big effort to help each other out, getting time
out, and diffusing frustrations better than ever before. This is very
important to us at the moment, and I feel we are better set up for the
rest of the race mentally than when we started. A proceess goal success
for Expedition Coppelia leg 2 RNZ.

As I have written this the breeze has firmed up more, long may it hold.

Puyseger is not as dramatic as I expected. Tapering into the sea less
imposingly than the scenery we had got used to in the last. Still happy
we saw it at its pleasant best.
