The weather could be a bit nicer. Since last night there is just ugly weather. Instead of the predicted 20 knots of wind we see rather 30 knots and within the numerous squalls it even goes up to 40. The rain is pouring over the deck and the watch is no real fun. For the coming hours the weather forecast is not indicating any changes. OK, lets face it.
