[SJDXA] 3Y0Z update

[N2OO]

Update from Ralph, KØIR...

February 14, 2018, 1645 UTC: We continue our slow pace toward Capetown.  We are currently making 5.6 knots and are 293 miles from Capetown.  We are showing 2 days and 5 hours until we reach Capetown.

The weather is pleasant.  Our seabirds have decreased in number since we left cooler waters.  Recently, a pod of Orcas passed by, and the bridge spotted a whale.  Those were the highlights of the day.  There's not much left for us to do.  We have one /MM radio to occupy the 20 of us.

It's a bit difficult to arrange and confirm our flights home and to prepare for Customs/Immigration in Capetown without the internet, but we are managing --- sort of.

Thanks again to everyone and the good wishes we encounter on the air.  The "dit-dits" are appreciated.

73,
Ralph, KØIR
