Title: 100nm to go

[<< Prev Post] | [Next Post >>]
[Back to Index/Map]

We had a very good 24 hours sailing in about 10-12kts of wind and somehow when speaking to Bali Blue who had slowed down so as to arrive at the waypoint on time and allow us to catch up, we had overtaken them during the night - its not over till the fat lady sings!!! - Well done Chizol

Our position is 13:21S 144:41W

A hot morning and a great rolling swell - boat speed is more than 6kts through the water and 6.5plus over the ground
