Comments

The sea and weather conditions remain reasonable and we still are making good progress on the homeward journey. Average speed for the past 24 hour period to 1200 local was 13.65 knots. The Master has advised our ETA Hobart is Saturday afternoon. The exact time of arrival will be determined by speed averaged over the next few days. After a thorough search of all chronometers, time pieces, watches and clocks failed to locate that elusive 'L' we felt safe to advance our time one hour last night.
