On route to Australia via Chesterfield Reef
02h00 UTC 28 October
Course: 246°
Distance covered last 24hrs until 01h00 GMT: 135nm
Distance to Chesterfield: 127 nm(at 07h30 utc)
Position 19°15' S 160°28' E
All's well on board.
We have had a good days sailing and are trying to keep our speed up to 6kn so that we will arrive tomorrow afternoon at Chesterfield Reef. We do not want to be too late as we have 7nm to negotiate along the inside of the reef to the anchorage. The wind has strengthened a little but has gone more to the south making it a close reach and a little bumpy. If necessary we will motor to keep up our speed if the wind drops. It would be nice if it were to go a little more to the east.
Otherwise all's going well
