Maybe gale winds, force 8

Under lee land we have full sails out, even some motor help. But soon we've put in a reef. Then two. Then pulled down the whole main sail. And half the genoa. We're still roaring along at over 6 knots. We'll be home in no time.
The waves aren't high, but best to spend most of my off-watches in the bunk while waiting for my sea-legs. Soup for dinner.
And busy night-watches with lots of North Sea cargo traffic.
The British oil platforms lighting our way.
