day 13

Day 13 finds us motoring in calm seas with low cloud. Position 55 49.9'S 141 56.3'W. We have had a very light wind trip so far with some good sailing and some motoring/motor-sailing with nothing above about 25 knots. Currently we are still heading SE but in about a day we will start heading east. Saw some hourglass dolphins but nothing much else to report.
So far we have completed about 1895 nautical miles in the 13 days we have been at sea. This has included daily runs of up to 227 nautical miles and as low as 130 nautical miles. We have done about 1995 nautical miles and have 2825 nautical miles to complete to get to Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands (if we stop there). There is then the 3500 odd nautical miles across the South Atlantic to Cape Town. While calmer seas are lovely it has seen lower daily runs which means we take longer.
