The good: We were making excellent time.
The bad: The conditions in the Atlantic Ocean were much worst than the weather forecast promised they would be.

Doesn't look that choppy from here. Can hardly feel a thing ;-)
Great silvery sea!

Hi Dave,
There are no other words for it except perfectly wonderful!! I love this scene.

I guess it's all relative, Royalld. This all looks good to me!

I'm surprised you got as steady a shot as you did as choppy as those waters look
Guest 15-May-2008 14:03
Good: sharks aren't enjoying you as a meal
Bad: there's still hope on the horizon
