Against the wind to "Man-of-war Bay"
Seasicknes tablets swallowed, we're off at 11am into the wind and the lumpy seas. "Lille Per" steers and I find it wise to lie down on my off-watches. Pasta in Campbell's mushroom soup is an easy meal, and then it's darkened into night.
Until a Seismic surveying vessel ruins our almost ok course to Tobago. We wait for him, going all of 31/2 knots, and his 4-mile tow of cable. And we are now about 19 nautical miles off course.With a defect autopilot we end up with four hours of hand-steering into the wind to arrive in "Man-of-war Bay" at 11am
