ORCV Melbourne to Vanuatu (M2V)
So what does 0.7 of a knot look like?
Slinky Malinky still has her AIS transponder working and earlier on this afternoon, she was making just 0.7 of a knot. Now there's 1.852 km/h in a knot (which is a nautical mile per hour), so the answer is 1.3km/h.
We got this pic of Mirrabooka's kite (she's a Jenneau) as they went past Wilsons Promintory and all the creases in it, indicate that it was struggling to fill.
This, then, is what 0.7 looks like...
To find out who's where in the chase of the container full of humanitarian aid: Go to Sked information (Radio Schedules are when the fleet radios in to tell us where they are etc.), which is HERE and Tracker, which is HERE.
