weather

i never had some many weather changes in one week during a long passage! yesterday afternoon we were cruising along, before we were hitting a second time the cold labrador current. fog fog fog and no wind! we are motoring now since yesterday evening for the last 17 h. it is unbelievable cold and most of the night the visibility was around 10-20 m. good to have a radar. the sea is flat like a mirror with a bit of movement. quite nice and strange. since two hours the fog is gone and we have beautiful sunshine but still no wind.
The first 8 days of that trip we had all kind of wind blowing or not blowing, but we couldn´t find the westerlies yet, which should blow here constantly and make it a nice passage. The good thing is, the trip is not boring and eventful and time is running quicker.
The autopilot during motoring is not working so we are changing shifts on the helm.
everything is fine on board,
