Got up at 0545 to hear another crew in the anchorage already pulling up their anchor chain.  We were underway by 0630 - engine on and mainsail up, but no wind.  We motor-sailed the whole time and did the 43 miles to Polemos Buku in almost exactly 7 hours - average speed of 6.14 knots.  So far we have done 123 miles in 3 days - only another 527 to go - about another 2 weeks at this speed - think about that when you clock off a quick 200 miles on the motorway in about 3 hours!
