Hove To

John and Shauna
Just an update to let everyone relax.... the promised foul conditions have eventuated so we are hove to, slowly skating across the wind at 1.5 knots. We were a tad uncomfortable and felt the best option was to sit pat and allow it to pass. This will mean a delay of a couple of days in landfall - oh well! We're reasonably comfortable, certainly moreso than when we were making way in it. All aboard well, cheerful but a bit weary. We'll send another entry in a day or so. Cheers, Us
