Day 277 - Galapagos - Marquesas, Passage - Day 4
Monday 27th April - As of midnight day-4 we were
at position 4:13.10S 95:43.67W We sailed all through the night and have not stopped, with
the tow generator working over time it means we can kick back and watch one of
the 70 or so DVD’s I bought in the Galapagos. Infact it means we can
pretty much watch as many as we like. In the afternoon as I came up onto the deck I spotted a huge
pod of whale’s. There must have been at least 15 in the gang. As I
studied a little closer it appeared to be three families traveling together.
They were all Pilot whales, I think, similar to the family that greeted us in
La Corunna on the west coast of We have still caught no fish and I am starting to wonder if
there are actually any fish in the Pacific. I hope we catch some soon or I am
going to be very very thin by the time I get to the other side. Day 277 Destination – Average Speed – 5.3 Total distance – 136 Nautical Miles Travel Time – 24h |
