The front came on time, just as predicted. Since we were only skirting the back end, it was mostly rainy and a nice southerly breeze with very little gusts. The wind is now slowly dying and turning westerly. The sky is getting brighter. So it seems the front will also pass as predicted. It is very reasuring that the forecasts are so accurate. So we have good reason to believe, that we will have favorable winds all the way to the end.
The sea has become very cold. The last two days it went from 15°C to 9°C. Inside the boat is is still around 15°C, so we are quite comfortable with some layers of cloths on and of course even more cosy under the blanket during off watch!
All good aboard. Michaela is taking excellent care of us and constantly supplying us with healthy food. And of course Alita is taking very good care of all of us.

The sea is the same as it has been since before men ever went on it in boats.
