Leaving Richard’s Bay, SA

Having cell phone connection, I’m able to post this right from the boat on this website. Two hours ago, Faule Haut has left Richard’s Bay and is heading towards Durban to pick up his Crew Immanuel, who is waiting there already. The wind is facing the bow, as the high waves (up to 5 m) as well, FAULE Haut is running under motor. It’s a very uncomfortable ride. Luckily the waves are not breaking. But with the wind and the waves against me, I’m making only 2 kn of SOG. I should reach the Agulhas Current in about 10 nm and hope that this will give me a boost. But that only works, if the waves won’t break. If they break, I have to get back closer to the coast and would not have the advantage of the current.
