[John Miller]

I’ve been in touch with them and am tracking GPS & WX.  Seas still a problem.  Having to zig zag slows them down.

Average speed over last 24 hours:  5.00 mph on one engine
Nautical Miles to Capetown:  1328
Anticipated arrival date currently:  18-February
Date of departure from Punta Arenas, Chile:  16-January

They are “keeping busy” helping to fix toilets, clean clogged drains, drying out wet clothes, doing low back exercises to loosen up strained muscles, repairing furniture damaged when floor anchors failed, perfecting getting in and out of bunks in 30 degree rolls, etc.

They’ll be on the ship for over one month before landing in South Africa — and will certainly need our moral and perhaps financial support when they return to the US.
