Today marked a major event in our circumnavigation as we rounded Cape Agulhas and passed from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. I recorded passing our waypoint, 8nm south of the Cape at 1752 with 73nm to go to the waypoint off the Cape of Good Hope.

A distant view of the sand dunes at Cape Agulhas – about as close as you wish to get to them.  The white specs are sea birds.
