Northerly Drift
If anyone has the raw data of the locations and the discovery times of the individual bodies, it would be interesting to play around with this.
Slats 11
Table 1 pg 34 of the drift report gives the time and location of the retrieved bodies. I used this data and got a northerly drift of north = -0.000103399474 x time^2 + 0.042572523906 x time. Where time = hours from the time of the slick pic ie time from 2:14.5 less 30.03 hrs. If one ignores the first 2 bodies it becomes north = -0.000088568370 x time^2 + 0.040144268083 x time. There is no x^0 ie no intercept value, since the curve is focused on the slick.

Edit. Centres impact at 2° 37.4’ N, 30° 30.6’ W
