29:03.47N 032:37.97E Mersa Thelemet, Gulf of Suez, Friday 29th May PM

Another overnight motor last night got us to the anchorage of Marsa
Thelemet.

We slept all day to catch the northbound tide this evening up to Suez
(hurray!) but 5 miles out this evening we got walloped by 40 knot headwinds
(boo!) which is too much even for the salt-crusted seadogs that we are. We
retreated with our seadog tails between our legs back to where we started.
