Position 14:30 UTC -2  04 29.619S 033 17.940W

After a good run this morning the wind has abandoned us and we are motor sailing – 310nm to go very frustrating. The crew saw three dolphins being playful, but otherwise I am coming to the conclusion that there is no life in the ocean. Last night we were visited by two birds needing a rest. A lot of squawking as one skidded around on the solar panel. Gone at first light.

We are heading straight for Doc’s atoll, which would pass/hit in the dark, therefore before it gets dark we will gybe.

Supper bully beef pasta followed by fruit and custard.

Frustrated but well

Cheers

Chris
