2 April Walvis Bay arrival


At sunset when we were only 30nm from Walvis Bay the wind stopped as suddenly as it had begun yesterday afternoon. From sailing at a steady 7 to 8 knots we were back to the motoring at 6 which feels slow! A friend who visited a couple of years ago wrote that a night entry is straight forward. It is. We passed the north cardinal at Pelican Point a little before 11pm. Keeping the large boat anchorage on our port side and the dredged channel to starboard we made our way to the small boat anchorage close to the WBYC and anchored at 22.57.00S 14.28.67E 4m LAT. Miles covered 260nm. Time taken 1 day 13 hours.
