We have just passed 1,3NM from a 530ft tanker, some excitment for the kids.

The swells are bigger and the wind is stronger today so we have left in the two reefs in the main. It is similar conditions to that which we left Cape Town in.

The saloon is in the process of getting Christmas decorations made and put up by all of us. Later we will be braaing some marshmellows on the stove.

Our current position is 4 deg 52,1'S and 31 deg 9,6'W and doing about 6,5 knots.
