North Atlantic - Brief update

Just had a TXT from Boo, he seems fine, although not having that much fun:

"35 53N 36 36W. THRN HED FST ACRS CBN THOUT I BRK ARM. 4 OR 5M SEAS.HAD 30KN TTL DRKNES.SO COLD!"

Translation for those who don't speak TXT:

"Thrown head 1st across the cabin, thought I had broken my arm. 4 or 5M seas. Had 30KN, total darkness. It's very cold".

hi all.

Just had a very quick call from Boo & he's still not having a great time as he seems to be stuck in a bad patch with rough seas but wanted you to know that he is alive & well- albeit knackered. It seems to be subsiding a little so fingers crossed he can get some sleep tonight.

forgot to say for those following with great accuracy - his lat & long at time of call (22.30 GMT) was 36.53N 33.38W. Latest Grib files indicate the weather front is passing over him heading East - as long as he doesn't go too fast -thus keeping up with it!
