We are still following the Indian coast around seven miles out, although we can’t see land as there is always a traditional haze on this coastline, reducing visibility.

 

Last night we sailed on and off dodging many fishing boats with large nets set out around them.  Our convoy is working well and it is good to see several other yachts around us at all times.

 

The wind is dying now and backing, as is usual mid morning, before the sea breezes set in around midday for some afternoon sailing on lovely calm seas.

 

We are planning to anchor tonight for some rest – it will be great to get a nights sleep before setting off again tomorrow towards Mumbai.
