On 4th December, at 9 p.m., she crossed the equator, in 15 days 6 hours from the Lizard, after which she tacked about with head winds until 8 p.m. of the 11th, being then 09 miles east of the portion in which she was on the evening of the 4th. At 4 a.m. on the 26th December sighted Tristan d'Acunha, and on the 28th crossed the meridian of Orconv.ichlnlat.40dog.S. On the 2nd January she rounded the Capo of Good Hope, 44 days out and crossed the meridian of St. Paul's on the 14th, and Cape Leuwin on the 21st, 08 days out At 9 p.m. on the 20th she made Cape Otway, 68 days nine hours from the Lizard; and anchored inside Port Phillip Heads on the following morning at 9 o'clock."
