Homeward bound
It's a misty afternoon at the top end of the Le Maire Strait. Those dark streaks peeping above the mist just in front of my headsails are the hills on the eastern tip of the Tierra del Fuego. I'm in the Atlantic now, about 200 miles SW of the Falkland Islands & heading north at 11kt in a moderate easterly breeze.
I've moved up to 19th place & should be 18th inside a couple hours. I'm still nearly 7000 miles from the finish line, so there's plenty time to pass a few more on the way home.
