Re: Latin Translation
There will be many ways of translating this. Here's just one.
semper ventus secundus tibi sit/atque sol os tuum calefaciat.
May there always be a favourable wind for you and may the sun warm your face.

CFstar, I have to ask... is this for a tattoo? Because I really wouldn't recommend translating for tattoos this way.
