Comments

The seas have picked up a bit since yesterday, and because we're going with them the ride is still pretty smooth. Whilst we're averaging about
15.5 knots it's not quite fast enough to get home for Thursday. It looks like we will arrive Friday morning instead.

Cheers

Andy, Margaret and Kate.
