Sunday afternoon - 14th. Irish Sea

I am currently in the middle of the Irish Sea - just entering the Shipping lanes. 

I can see a few commercial vessels already, so now is the time to start working out how close they will pass.

The wind caused some nasty waves this afternoon, which rolled the boat around and made it a thoroughly unpleasant afternoon. I spoke to Simon  (cognac) at 21:00 and he has found it uncomfortable too. He is putting up a better shown than me and is 5 miles ahead.

At 19:00 I ate Vanessa's cottage pie, which although delicious, took a bit of forcing down due to the sick making motion of the boat.

Things have quitened down a bit now and I have just watched the sun go down 
over the mountains of Eastern Ireland. If you look at the photo carefully, you can see 2 of the Jeater Boats on the horizon. 

Am starting to settle down to this weird life - just need to work out out to grab some naps!
