Pangaea continues south along the Brasilian east coast

It was a rough trip from Paramaribo through to Fortaleza. Pangaea's crew had to deal with very stong head-on winds, large swells and a strong counter current. With Pangaea's speed drastically reduced she is now a few days behind schedule. We hope she will regain ground as she sails around the north eastern point of Brasil and conditions start improving again. Pangaea leaves Fortaleza today.
