Never thought I'd hate low pressures, day 9.
Okay, so every day since I started talking about winds and waves, we've been going through these mini storms. We're not sure whether it's squalls, low pressures or actual mini storms, but either way they're super annoying and a little terrifying. In less than a minute the winds go from "I wish we had a bigger sail, we're totally gonna be the last boat" to "oh my god what is that sound, is this dangerous, roll in the sailsWAIT A MINUTE LOOK HOW FAST WE GO". So then this goes on for around 10 minutes, usually with rain, and then all is back to normal.
We got pretty used to this by now, but this time the "back to normal wind" spiraled around from all directions, throwing the sail back and forth. Are we in the eye of a low pressure? I don't know, but we're motoring our way out of it the best we can.
Nothing to worry about though, we're doing very fine.
Please stop those low pressures though.
Ellie out.
