The confluence of seas, winds, and currents in the neck of the Windward Passage made for a rough few hours last night. A messy sea state and steady force 6 winds (22-27) with the occasional gut to 30 made for a wild ride. With no moon it was a bit like riding a roller coaster in the dark with random waves being through at us from unpredictable directions. Filled the cockpit once when a wave broke over the stern quarter.
This morning is benign. So it goes at sea.
