Wonderful progress towards west yesterday.<\/p>\n
The front is passing now with rain and the wind died. We brailed up the main and braced square. It is the trimming for waiting for any kind of wind. The ship is heading north but drifts east. We can only try to drift slower what we don't want now by \u201csteering\u201d a certain way.
\nNot under command, patience is the religion here. We don't choose, so we wait. We try not to complain because we know that it is going to influence the mood of everyone.
\nAnd what are 300 miles? (till Den Helder) It is just 2 days with a fair wind, which I know will come.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, we take a break from jobs and maintenance. According to such absent breeze, I gave a box of table games for the crew to play in the galley.
\nAlso, we know that our colleagues from Avontuur went sailing around Scotland and soon they will show up in the North sea maybe crossing our path before going home.<\/p>\n
