It was the strangest thing. Amde for a bumpy ride for a while.

And it came only a couple of hours after we had come to a grinding halt, in the pitch black, with no change in the wind and with 17 metres of water showing on the depth sounder, with no sign of anything untoward around us. It was like there was a glitch in the software. Turns out we had picked up a lobster pot on the keel and it had anchored us to the bottom. That was a very odd half an hour until it worked itself free.

Very strange day. And the moon was shining bright.....
