Well the captain was right, it was a rough night. The wind force is currently only 9 and the sea state rough, but it seems to be the worst sea day we've had, weather wise. To make matters worse, the outside temperature is only 3 degrees at the moment (8.20). Maybe things will improve later in the day. The outside decks are closed.

The decks were still closed at 14.30, so no deck quoits. Earlier, the men pulled back in front in the Battle of the Sexes. The captain announced that the seas should calm down about 15.00.

Seas much calmer by dinner time. Clocks back another hour tonight, we're now GMT -8.
