Some motoring some sailing.Sailed overnight now
motoring through heavy rain,little wind.Nearly 03S so should come out of this
today.Very sticky.Done pretty well to get this far without resorting to engine
but when the wind goes evrything just flaps.
Seen no other boat for over a week but then to the
south of the usual track.No fish large or small and very few sea birds (suspect
they are denied landing rights on Galapagos..At least the boat will be lighter
as I use some of this diesel I have been carrying around for
months.
