860 miles, updated



Just checked the yellow brick chart to see GANNET covered just shy of 66 miles in the last 12 hour leg.  Wow.

------------------------------------------------------


Checking in with Webb's yellow brick track this morning it shows that the last mark was about 860 miles from St. Helena.  It seems his estimate of a three week sail from Durban to St. Helena will be pretty accurate.


Ventusky shows following wind, above, and waves, below, and clear skies.  From a distance, it seems like pleasant sailing.  I'll look forward to reading Webb's passage log.


Just beautiful sailing here yesterday, my fourth sail in February.  A rare event with both the Pilgrim and oldest daughter on board.
