Gertha 4 - cheeki rafiki search
37.17.8 N 49.38.0 W
It is 21.00 UT, we have entered the search area, made contact with a US Coastguard airplane who was overhead, he confirmed to keep a good look
out. At dusk we will reduce sail, about 22.00 UT and go slow in the night north
west, at first light we will head north east across the search area.
After this there will be a limit to what we can do as still 7 or 8 days to
Azores and as Gertha has shed part of her propeller we have no option to engine
at speed if necessary to clear an Azores high if it builds.
