Half way to Sri Lanka
![](/static/images/logos/site-logo.png)
Position 07:06.375N 089:32.01E We are into day 4 of our passage with 560 miles to go. So far it has been sailing all the way although we have had
several squalls and wind shifts to keep us on our toes ! We are missing our long distance crew – it is quite
tiring sharing the night watches and on top of that we have to do all our own
cooking and washing up, can you believe it ! Adam, I need someone to mess with my cooking and Malcolm, I
am trying my best to clean, but the cooker needs you and Ashley – which watch
are you doing tonight ? We have passed many of the fleet, we saw Chisel and Lucy
Alice early this morning and we should see Fai Tira and maybe Angel by tonight.
Jackamy are around 25 miles behind us and Sol Maria another 7 miles behind
them. It is comforting to have other yachts around. We took the Sombraro Channel through the Nicobar Islands, which
seems to be the popular choice, however some of the fleet have gone further
North around the islands but we should all start converging as we get closer to
the port of Galle. |
