COG 309T SOG 4.8

Today we tried to repair the jib to give us some more sail area but no luck so far. With the bad conditions we're burning lots of fuel and it looks like we might not make Male so we need to find a way to improve our sailing performance. Otherwise we'll just have to cut our speed even further to try conserve fuel in which case we might make it to Male in another week or so. A week to do 700 miles... great. Otherwise it's business as usual: mopping up, throwing up etc.
