Timshel - Darwin to Lombok Day 5



Some sailing, some motoring during the night. Managed to set the cruising chute for a few hours in the morning, making slow progress. More motoring when the little wind started to "box the compass" and we doused the chute, later managed to sail at 4 knots or so for most of the night. We obviously crossed a shipping channel in the evening as saw several big ships on AIS but none came close, though one fishing boat did, at least it was well lit and we had the big torch out to shine on our sails. We are now in fuel conservation mode, we need to make sure we save enough to get to the harbour after the finish line. Just wishing for a few knots more wind!
