Bad weather
« on: February 15, 2020, 07:40:11 PM »
Hi,
15 Feb 2020, not good to be at sea in the English Channel.
Around 50 ships anchored off East coast of Cotentin (France), sheltering of bad weather !
Source : Marine Traffic.
Regards,
Yvon

Also in the English Channel interesting to compare the speeds of ships battling against the wind with those with the wind astern.
