Winds 10-30 knots handkerchief jib no main sail.

Speed 1.9 - 8 knots. COG 260 (direction)

In winds of 25-30kts Stamper managed 1.9knts at 1am draging and swinging wildly out of balance. Seriously hampered everything seemed wrong.

6am sweep hull pulling weighted line from bow to stern - nothing! 10am back to normal. We think it was a huge octopus clinging underneath wearing a parachute break.

Expect to arrive in Durban around 26 October(weather permitting).
