Latest position and Iridium satphone note from the crew. They are moving now SE, trying to reach the center of the high.

Ron. 1330 utc 30.07.56S / 023.20.37W back sailing reasonably fast in almost the right direction. Need to maintain 7knots to be in CT on 8th … looks like more headwinds … will watch my flight on 9th … very keen to meet that.

This position puts the boat about 300nm north, and 800nm west of the high center they are shooting for. You can see it in the image below from Passage Weather – its the light/white colored central area with the simple bars – less arrow feathers! The core is at about 35S / 05W
