Stay safe mate. We are all thinking of you out there. At least the strong winds are pushing you in the right direction.

Not surprised you’ve been having a rough time. 40 kt winds and 6+ m waves in that little boat. You couldn’t pay me enough… Looks like you will get a break from the wind soon. Hang in there, buddy.
