Not happy about this trip to Bermuda!
First night watch - sailed wearing only a pair of shorts
Second night watch - had to shut the windward flap (like a door) as it was a bit chilly
Third night watch - had to put a t-shirt on
Fourth night watch - had to put a t-shirt on AND shut the windward flap
Tonight - fifth night - flap down, t-shirt on AND had to dig out a fleece!!!!
Not happy!!
