We arrived in Mayotte last night and had the anchor down at 1:00am local time last night. Its a 3 hour run into the anchorage from outside the entrance with a number of twists and turns that are all well marked and lit.
After we passed the tip of Madagascar and entered the Mozambique Channel the wind laid down. The Compression Zone was fairly benign. We did a 128 mile noon-to-noon run with the lighter wind. Of the last 30 hours we probably motored 80% of the run.
Todays job, get cleared into Mayotte with the French officials.
