Nongsa Outbound Morning Day 4

Hi everyone,
We had a very quiet night last night with very light winds. Battled to keep up any speed at all under sail. Plenty of cargo ships coming past since we're crossing the shipping lane between Borneo and Belitung. It was a dark night with a layer of high cloud so no stars to look at.

This morning the winds have stayed just as light (3-4 knots) so we are under motor for the first time since day 1. We're making 5.5 knots and steering 120, current position is 01 59.5S 108 31.4E.

We still need to husband our fuel so probably won't motor all day. Hopefully some wind will appear!
