From the logbook: 0205 started port and starboard engines. All sails furled during night and morning.

Comments: Yesterday evening the wind died completely. Since we were drifting in all too densely trafficated waters it was decided to turn to going by motor. The heat on board is starting to make itself felt. It is hot with high humidity, which results in some problems to sleep in the quarters. We are now going by motor towards Hong Kong and have 20-25 nm left. Estimate to be there some time tonight.
