5. Helgoland to Borkum
78,00M
After waiting four days for the weather to ease, the crew was keen to cast off at 08:45. The wind was stronger than expected, up to Force 6, and waves were 2 to 3m, causing Joe to retire to bed.
The day was long and tiring and the tedious approach to the harbour around Borkum finally ended at 22:50.
