After my tea, I got to work, taking advantage of the fact there was no wind. I hoisted the mainsail to make sure it was installed correctly and to measure the reefing line for a Dyneema sheath. I installed the sheath and both lines, hoisting the mainsail a second time to make sure everything was working. After breakfast, I got back to work by lifting the dinghy to get aces to the forward hatch so I could cover it in plastic. I then filled the main tank using the Jerry cans. Just as I was finishing adding the tenth 5 gal can, the tank overflowed, meaning I had 10 gals more in the tank than I thought I did. Since I only guesstimate the amount of fuel from the number of hours the engine has run (and fuel consumption depends on rpm and load), I am conservative when predicting fuel consumption. I\u2019d rather underestimate the amount of fuel than overestimate it. I am going to fill the Jerry cans tomorrow. I washed the outside of the boat. The weather forecast has changed. Instead of this weekend, it is now supposed to rain tomorrow. Accordingly, I will work on the interior of the boat tomorrow and plan to go hiking this weekend.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current Position: 34 02.971\u2019S 18 20.883\u2019E; Timezone: UTC+2; SOG: 0; COG: N\/A; TWS: 40; TWD: 182; Current Speed, 0 kt; Current Direction, my Distance to Waypoint (Hout Bay): in a slip; Total Miles Sailed: 16487 nm; Engine Hours: 388; Estimate Fuel: 60+15+0; Comments: I woke up at 4:30 and got out of bed at 5:00. &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/2025\/12\/11\/check-in-december-11-2025-1700-utc\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Check-in December 11, 2025; 17:00 UTC&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2189","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-captainslog"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2189","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2189"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2189\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2189"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2189"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aegir-ran.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2189"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
