Nexus - Safely across the Wild Coast and on our way into Port Elizabeth



We had a mixes evening with motorsailing and great sailing down the wild coast with 2-3kt boost from the current. The weather and waves behaved themselves and we had a fast trip down the coast. The low we were watching has developed stronger than forecast but is coming to sea from land north of us near Durban so we're well south and out of the way, but must be in harbor for the next low approaching on Wednesday. We passed East London at 2am so decided to continue on to Port Elizabeth. We're just 50nm away right now and motoring in no wind, so all is well. We plan to spend the night then sail around to St Francis Bay, which is a short day sail further along the southern coast.
