Half of the distance covered has been in vain, but that\u2019s how the weather worked out. An Easterly wind (headwind) prevents me from moving forward. I am travelling with the wind at portside, and the keel in the bow of the boat is a great help, without the keel I would have been dragged even further West, toward New Zealand. Instead, I have kept the 180-200\u00b0 course during the day. Forecasts have shown the winds are backing to Northerlies, and that tomorrow it will back further to a tailwind. I will be making up for lost time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"slider-block slider-block--margin-b\">\n            <div class=\"slider-block__inner\">\n              <div class=\"slider-block__list js-slider-block\"><div class=\"slider-block__item\">\n                    <figure>\n                     <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/konyukhov.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/DSC_3715-6.jpg\">\n                    <\/figure>\n                  <\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-AU\" style=\"margin: 0px; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I had counted on travelling 50-60 miles a day, and I am currently going at half that speed. In the Southern Ocean the suitable season lasts for three months (December, January, and February), covering the Southern Hemisphere\u2019s summer months. This is, of course, no guarantee of an absence of storms. There are always storms here, but the air is warmer and the intensity of the storms is diminished somewhat. The weather conditions begin to worsen with the onset of Autumn (throughout March and April). So the season is short, which means I cannot waste any time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-AU\" style=\"margin: 0px; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes. \u00a0It is very touching that you remember me, are thinking of me, and praying for me.
