At anchor

Today we lie at anchor offshore from Cape Town. The six arrested crew are still languishing ashore waiting for word from the lawyer as to when they can return to the ship. Hopefully it will be soon because we miss them.

There has been a navy vessel anchored about half a mile away keeping a very close eye on the Esperanza since yesterday evening.

However, it's a beautiful day in the harbour and it's Sunday, the crew's day off so they're taking it easy, having a well earned break.

Penny is hoping to go into port some time today to check over the inflatables. We know that the Grey Whale was damaged but we're not sure exactly what is wrong with it.
