Finally broke into the Gulf of Suez passing the lights of Sharm El Sheik yesterday evening thanks to light wind and motoring direct. The tacking yesterday was yielding minimal progress with contrary current until the wind dropped. Now we can see that we might actually make Suez tomorrow having felt that the Red Sea was holding us in a vice like grip, determined to refuse entry to the Gulf.
