Giovanni Soldini and Maserati Multi70‘s crew crossed the Sunda Strait and entered the Indian Ocean.
At 19 UTC they were at 9° South and 103° East, 593 miles ahead Lionel Lemonchois.
Leaving the China Sea, the crew leaves behind many hazards: fishing ships with no lights, debris and nets scattered all around the first 2000 miles of the Hong Kong to London route.
Maserati Multi70 is now headed towards the South-East trade wind, flowing around the sixteenth parallel South. Soldini explains: “A couple of days of suffering, then we will be going a cannamorta (flat out Ndr) with the trade wind towards South Africa, which is the next big buoy of our journey.”
