Dany II...entering the danger zone...we now have
435mi. to go till we reach Salalah, Oman...we never thought that reaching a
container port would be a high priority & a welcome sight, but we're really
looking forward to getting there...yesterday nite was calm, with only 1 fishing
boat all nite...unfortunately, we had to power all night , but we have to keep
up our speed...fortunately, the current has finally turned E & is giving
us an additional1knt. of speed...it might not sound like a lot, but in the
world of sailing, it's a huge help!...strong winds are forecast for today, &
it seems like it's trying to fill in now...the engine won't be turned off till
it does tho...meanwhile, we're keeping a close watch for anything unusual &
are hopeing for another "uneventful" day...stay tuned...Dany II & the
crew
