Trying to make ground E so taking often.
 
2 days of sailing and motor sailing to the W along the Borneo coast. As hoped, land winds off the Borneo coast, when they blow, have been favourable. Current is still contrary but has eased considerably.
 
Prevailing wind still W/SW - too much on the nose for this section, but hoping they persist once we round the SW corner of Borneo where the SW winds will be ideal for the leg up to the Riau Islands.
