Brush Island to Cumberland Islands, Australia

Kai Ea
Van de Stadt Madeira 44
ESE breeze consistent at 16 to 20 kts, sailing conservatively with 2 reefs in the main and staysail, constant sail and slight course changes in an effort to maintain boat speed whilst remaining comfortable onboard, beating to windward becoming time consuming when considering SOG towards destination Goldsmith Is meant I started the iron top sail (engine) to maintain SOG at 30AWA. Arrived NW side of Goldsmith Is, dropped anchor in 6mt using a 40mt rode and long snubber, wind remains consistent 15kt with stinger gusts.
