The Ocean is more than a bit bitchey at the moment, not that this is unusual for this time of year, storms roll out of the Arctic and roil the seas from the Aleutian Chain to the equator, at the moment (4AM Zulu) we are rolling 20-30 degrees, hopefully the wind will shift in the next day or so and be off our stern, that should give a smoother ride.
We did hit one fairly bad storm in the eastern Pacific a month back, sustained 90 knot winds and 8 meter swells, lasted three days.
And as I said before in news I find funny, sad and strange, I’m now quite sure the third mate has a crush on me!
