Here we will post our noon coordinates and provide a link to a map to show you where we are.
Location: 33° 55.1 S, 18° 26.6 E
Wednesday 16:00, 08.23.2006
The Schooner Maggie B tied up to the Royal Cape Yacht Club dock at 1600 on August 23. Our position is 33° 55.1 S, 18° 26.6 E. We went 3903 NM is 22 days, averaging 177 NM per day, or 7.4 knots.
The crew is happy to be ashore, but also rested and fit, and ready to go out and celebrate Lieve’s birthday.
Table Bay lived up to its reputation and we had gusts to 38 knots as we furled sails on approach. The wind was only 30 knots in the RCYC marina.
I’ll have lessons learned and observations tomorrow.
All is well.

Frank: Congratulations on your safe arrival at Cape Town!! The last
week or so sounded pretty rough. Many happy returns to Lieve!!
Hopefully your excellent crew can continue with you for your next
long leg… to Australia/New Zealand?
