260424 Patience of a saint is needed

N 27° 58.718
E 142° 08.348

From midnight on winds of 15-20 KN were forecasted in all 4 models. However, the wind did not obey the forcast and we still have winds just below 15 KN.

This is an unpleasant situation because we can fly the Big Blue only up to 15 KN. So we have to continue with the genoa.

I’m waiting for the cold front but this very long beast is like a train in Germany and disregards the announced schedule, so it’s too late.

For the other side of the cold front, the wind is forcasted again with 20+ KN but from almost the opposite direction.

Last night we had each two watches with 4 h sleep on between. This feels good.

Now, at 0620 I’m on my last watch and wanted to bake bread. However, the night was so cold and the bulk fermentation was too slow as well.

Patience of a saint is needed…
