After leaving Eden yesterday we a had about 5 hours of sailing in the pouring rain!! and to make things worse it was my watch!, not a lot of fun I can tell you. Given the latitudes that we are sailing at it is not surprizing to here that the night time temperatures are a little low.
We are now in the first TSZ (Traffic separation Zone) and once through we are looking at getting to Wilsonâs Prom about 0700 on Wednesday Morning and as long as the weather holds we could be at the entrance to Port Philip Bay by 2200 Wednesday which would mean we would be at Royals by 0300 approximately on the 28/04.
