Day 16 Passage from Rapa Nui Bound for Puerto Montt

Steady sailing last 12+ hours. Expecting landfall this afternoon. Most likely we will anchor in the lee behind Punta Corona on the NW corner of Isla Chiloe tonight. Then tomorrow through the Canal Chacao at low slack and then ride the flood into Puerto Montt arriving Friday afternoon...but of course all subject to change.

Cheers - Christopher & the crew, s/v Sila
