I see via BBC News online that another Costa cruise ship is in trouble, this one drifting without power off the east coast of Africa in pirate-infested waters hours from help. The area they are in is also a place where rogue waves are relatively common. Without power, the crew can't prepare food. There are no internal lights, since the power from the generators is needed for critical functions.
Meanwhile we motor along the coast of Australia at a steady 21 knots en route to Cairns and then to the Great Barrier Reef. I think I'll go get breakfast. While I still can.
