Today is slow going and most likely it will be for the next 24 hours! We’re in the doldrums STIiLL! But we keep sailing and keeping the sails happy! It’s also difficult to point to the Marquises as wind angle and speed is not optimum. Good thing I love it out here!
At 09.40: South 03*12 West 131*01
COG: 150* SOG: 4kn
Coffee, Swim and some wine later just cause’!
Seemed like we had to go through some kind of a gate to get out of ITCZ as we had a wall of black clouds loaded with downpour and wind. Locked and loaded, we blew through the gate and it seems we now are in the trade winds! No wine today, brains needed to be sharp and ready to make quick decisions today as squalls had fun with Sarantium!
Goodnight!
