A bit of a wild night, but running with triple reefed main and some of the genny poled out. Averaging between 7 and 8 knots. Reasonably sized sea at about 4m and lots of breaking crest. Plenty of water over the decks and in the cockpit. More to come I suspect.

| CdG took a course change south overnight to avoid the worst of the storm - averaging 7.6kts with 940nm to run |
It sounds wild and woolly out there, but I guess it's giving you a good push towards home too.

Should clear the storm by night then it's decreasing winds and plain sailing to Plymouth (maybe not enough wind by Tuesday...). Adrena shows 940nm to run and 7.6kts average since last position.
ReplyDeleteDave Corfield says Swinhilda is back and has been seen on the Hamble. BCYC still following your every post and anticipating your arrival in Cowes.
Having spent a considerable amount of time studying the chart on the dining room table and calculator in hand, I have come to the conclusion that your arrival will be on Saturday at 2.22pm - looking forward to it!
