Well done to all those making the trip. I'm off to the sauna now, not what I was hoping or expecting, my ambition was at least to try to helm the boat to Cherbourg; as that wasn't happening, the trip was doing nothing for me so I called Time on it, still well within the sight of land. I'll be back!

Rough crossing but not as bed as they suffered on Friday. Took three and a half hours from the Needles to Cherbourg. Maintained about 18kn but took a bit of a pounding.
The Humber's console has come loose, quick repairs carried out tonight now looking ok.

Eek, Met office radar looks horribly wet so hope visibility does not deteriorate too much, safe return if you're not already back.
