The monastery of the sea

Two pictures snatched from the web this morning. An interesting "kink" in a friend's otherwise fine progress across the Tasman Sea towards the Coral Sea, the east coast of Australia and the first landfall of the next leg of his circumnavigation, having left New Zealand a little over a week ago.

And then, perhaps, the reason for said kink?
