    Was amazed when I heard you had sailed some (?most) of that last leg. Is that why the route goes a little zigzaggy? Were you 'tacking' (conjures up alarming memories of crossing over that time back from Rotterdam!🤢🤮🤮to the nth degree!

      Yes, and it was nearly as arduous as that Rotterdam crossing, my automatic tiller pilot went on the blink, that's £500 and it's only 18 months old. My bow spent so much time buried in waves that my nav lights packed up. I can't blame the forecast, it was spot on, it just didn't account for my wishful thinking that it might not be so bad.
