Stormy Seas in Chatham Strait

FAIRWEATHER got caught out by a strong storm that moved through south of our survey area. Even in the sheltered waters of Chatham Strait we encountered strong winds and large-ish seas. The photos don't do it justice, but here they are anyway.

 

The conversation on the bridge, as we ran ahead of 70knot winds was about who would go up to the bow for photos. No one wanted to go so me and the helmsman had to step up. That's me on the left.
