9pm Thursday 24th August 2017 The light wind died right away last night and so I just went with the flow and hence the erratic course. No coaxing could get the boat to go in the right direction and as the sea gradually became visible I could see why: we were right on the line of opposing currents or really on the wrong, North, side. On my side swirls and foam and blue bottles on a flat glassy surface and literally just yards away a gentle enticing zephyr rippling a much darker sea. It took many hours to jump the divide but since lunchtime have been making slow progress a bit to the SE so as to not get caught again. A thought went through my mind that this convergence area probably coincided with the feeding area of the great whales that supported the now abandoned Albany whaling industry.Today also was the commencement of my second month at sea and with the last of my oranges and potatoes just about finished time to start my vitamin supplements. ( As an aside I'd read that the humble spud is good for its vitamin C. )Just moving now as a small low seems to be forming around me but after a probable calm, favourable winds should hoist me up over the Mid Indian Ocean High.
