26 November – I really don't know what to write. 448 miles to go.
27 November  - my stomach has refused to take food, I'm really weak, what a 'misfortune.' again, there is something wrong with the engine but it's something new so I don't know if I can repair it. I need the Sun so that I can charge my batteries. I slowed down a lot as not to arrive on Sunday but on Tuesday evening as we planned. 

28 November – I fixed it! I even don't know how . Today, within the reach of my radio, there was a yacht calling for help, but it was somewhere on the other side of a big island, which was too far for me to help them.  The coastguard announced that we should look out for some object drifting on the south. At night? How am I supposed to look out for it? I get the impression that squalls have simply got used to me, actually, I have already got used to them as well :) 

29 November- gosh, what a night, I didn't sleep a wink, squalls, rain, silence, whirling water, squalls... what a horror. I wanted to recharge my batteries, and I ran out of fuel. It was my fault, so I brought the canisters and poured some gas. I needed to vent the engine and it's not that easy because a crew got stuck and then it 'wore off' a bit. In the meantime, I lost the gears so I had a lot to do. Can't this engine simply work for the last two days of the cruise?
yeaaah, now it's working! I'd almost surely get a job as a mechanic engineer. ‘Almost’ because now the alternator stopped charging! I'm flagging. I guess I can only start laughing at it. And the squalls don't give up even for a minute. Some ships appear. I pass by a big Hawaii island and Maui.
