After being deserted by his crew on an island in the Caribbean, Captain Jack Sparrow builds a raft to escape and set out to sea on it. The wind seems quite steady, at first blowing him due east for 19 km and then 11 km in a direction 5 degrees north of east. Confident that he will eventually reach safety, he falls asleep.

How far, as the crow flies, did the wind blow him while he was sleeping
