The North Sea came in with a vergence last night. We had Severe Gale Force
9. But luckily it was behind us. We pulled out the genoa with 2 reefs in and
we really got cranking. Our top speed was 16.2 knots. That is maybe a record
for this old girl. We were in 2 watches due to the conditions and traffic.
That mean 3 hours on watch and only 3 hours off. So this morning everyone is
a little tired.

ETA is Mon or Tue.
