Indian Ocean Part 2 - Day 3
 
No rain overnight or today.  Temperatures are a pleasant 30 degrees C.
 
A favourable South West wind has kept us ticking along nicely.
 
There has been quite a lot of heavy shipping - we seem to be on a shipping route.  We also came across a couple of fishing boats welll offshore, which was a surprise. 
 
Late this aftern0on a huge pod of dolphins - at least fifty - visited us and played around the boat.  
 
We are still pretty much on target for our daily runs, so are hoping to complete the passage in 12 days as planned.
 
Our position is at 1200 GMT (1300 BST).
