Life at 30 degrees

Living life at 30 degrees of heel:
- the galley has a strop to hold you in place
- the toilet does not!
- water doesn't sink to the bottom of the bilges but slops around the
navigators ankles.
- when you fall out of bed its even further to the floor (on the other side
of the boat)
- the bunks can be cranked up to horizontal but then the gap is too tight to
get in/out
- the boat is screaming along at almost 7 knots upwind. Hey, there has to
be an upside.
Fastnet Rock now 30nm miles away. ETA 15:20. Only 4 more hours at this
unsociable angle.
