Wee bit of a blow

Okay so its day three of a trip and last night we ran into some weather, its not a huge storm, 4m swells and strong winds. However at one point during the night we recieved a distress call and were diverted from our task group to assist the people in a small double masted sailboat.

Presently we are circling them in the north atlantic and they are all alive. Tired wet and most likely seasick but they are alive. Once the weather permits we will go and get them off of their boat. I have some nice pictures of the boat bobbing around in the waves. Once I prepare them I will post them here for all to see. When we do go get them I'll try and get some pictures of the rescue as well.

Stay tuned and check back often... this is turning out to be an interesting trip.
