The winds appear light to moderate so hopefully it's nothing serious however at just seven metres will be hard to spot.
Fingers crossed for him/her...

Yep. And further south we had the Orca at work again between Sesimbra and Sines. We are in Sesimbra at anchor.

Let's hope they are not related to this. They can move fast.

Just heard Orca's have disabled a sailboat near Cascais Thursday evening, not the French man though as there's more than one crew member..
No details on boat just that the Salva Vidas are responding to a distress call.
