We have been at anchor since yesterday evening. Various maintenance work has been initiated, some is already finished, some must be carried out later. The powder-room was emptied, cleaned and quite a lot could be stowed again. It was however noted that some things stored there would not be needed during the upcoming voyage. So that can be unloaded in Port Elizabeth, providing us with some extra space for everything really needed, something much appreciated by everyone. Our anchorage is not the best now that the wind has turned and increased again. But the weather forecast says it will slacken again tomorrow.
