Caduceus - Cape Town to St Helena Day 8 - An uneventful day



Position 21:23.39 S 000:31.32 E
Date 2359 (UTC+2) Thursday 26 January 2017
Distance run in 24hrs 170nm over the ground, 165nm through the water
Passage total 1222nm over the ground, 1161nm through the water
Distance to go 487nm
Planned distance Cape Town to St Helena 1697nm

Possibly a case of no news is good news. A combination of not having to stop to deal with hoisting the mainsail, the added speed gained from having a working mainsail and stronger winds gave us an additional 30nm on yesterday. Despite a very rolly motion, Elizabeth bashed to pans and produced a tuna bake, one of my favourites.
