Cruising the Indian Ocean

Day 1 of 2 days at sea.

A nice day at sea as we chip away at the 1,001 NM between Broome and our next port of call in Western Australia.

The Indian Ocean was a “little swelly” — in the 6-foot range … just enough motion to remind us that we are at sea. That might change overnight, however. Captain Giulio advised us in his noon announcement that there might be some pitching to contend with tomorrow. We shall see.

We’re taking advantage of our two days at sea to flesh out the self-drive portions of our overland trip. Today’s focus was on getting us from Sydney to Brisbane in March. Mui’s taken on the challenge of coming up with a loose-plan for us … doing a yeoman’s job considering we’re at sea using Regatta’s wi-fi for our research.

(I must say that while we’ve had some challenging moments with the wi-fi, which has not been converted to Musk’s Starlink yet, the signal has been fairly good. No real complaints.)Meer informatie
