Shit!

The orcas attacked and disabled a boat really close to where we are two days ago. They were also seen in the western English Channel at a point where we sailed right by them.

We didn't know. I thought they were still near Lisbon.

They have NEVER been this far north this early before. I thought we had until September.

Planning tomorrow's passage. Going to stay in shallow waters as much as we can. Actually quite frightened.

Further to this, a couple of hours ago had a pod of dolphins come up fast alongside, swim under the boat, and hang around the rudder.

Scared the living shit out of me until I realised they were just dolphins.

Dear god, I'm too old for this crap. Staying inshore as much as possible. I do not want to be embracing the life raft experience today.

@goatsarah Can you explain to the orcas that you quite like la France insoumise and they should go and find a megayacht to harass?

@BashStKid They leave megayachts alone. Contrary to popular jokes about how the orcas are some kind of class warriors, they are pretty much exclusively attacking small sail boats of the sort that cost about the same as a family car.
