Hey All!

As Challenger turns to fly to the north west with our new way point, she is closing in on the boarder defining the South African EEZ and the international waters!

It looks like the stream of eddies is moving out to the west so we are feeling less of an affect from the warm eddy to our south, however this is causing us to now feel the added effect of the cold eddy to our north resulting in a little more of a northward current at the surface.  Hopefully we will be able to ride this further to the north once we cross into international waters.

To the north, Silbo continues to fight his way through the northern flux created by the cold eddy to the west and warm signature to the east.  However there is some good news: the large warm eddy to the south west seems to be migrating in a north west direction. This we hope will expedite Silbo’s progress into more favorable currents.
