Today, we had an extended communication session with Fedor Konyukhov. The weather is favorable \u2013 plenty of sunshine, and the solar panels are operating at full capacity.<\/p>\n

Fedor Konyukhov:<\/p>\n

“Today is probably the best weather since the start. The ocean is smooth and calm, the sun is bright. There are light clouds in the sky. I even managed to dry my boots! I had almost forgotten that the ocean could look like this.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, the weather started to improve, and at night I saw an aging Moon and billions of stars. The sky was completely clear. The moon came out and the ocean sparkled with golden ripples.<\/p>\n

Mediterranean-like weather has been holding up all day today.<\/p>\n

I’m passing 300 miles north of the Crozet Islands. This is my sixth crossing of the Southern Indian Ocean \u2013 five times on sailing yachts, but the first time on a rowing boat. In 2016, I also crossed it in a hot air balloon.<\/p>\n

I look up at the sky and thank God for allowing me to be in this ocean right now and to have crossed it so many times.<\/p>\n

Taking advantage of the good weather, I decided to pump water using a desalination plant. When tried to start the device, the lights flickered, but the system wouldn\u2019t turn on. I had to grab a screwdriver and remove the protective cover. I found the corroded contacts \u2013 the copper wiring crumbled to dust. Luckily, there was enough spare wire length, so I stripped and reconnected it. The sockets were heavily corroded, and I don\u2019t know how long this system will hold. But for now, the desalinator is working again. At least I know where the problem is and will keep monitoring it.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I climbed to 40\u00b030′ south latitude, the farthest north I\u2019ve gone so far. It\u2019s definitely warmer, but the farther north I go, the greater the chance of encountering headwinds. Right now, it’s best for me to stay in the 41-43 degree south latitude corridor.”<\/p>\n

Coordinates: 40\u00b055′ south latitude, 51\u00b045′ east longitude.<\/p>\n
