Dover

We arrived Dover in Great Britain yesterday after crossing the feared english channel. We had a lot of variable winds and had to motorsail a great part of the way. In the darkest night we got 2 kt current againt us, and made hardly no progress. The traffic zone was crossed in daylight and made no problems.

Now the wind is west-southwest up to force 6 and we have to wait for better weather. Force six right in the nose is not very pleasant and cause sleepless nights. We will probably leave for Southampton tonight to buy some boat equipment. We hope to reach Falmouth in a couple of days, where we will wait for a good weather forecast for Biscaya.
