Day 3

7am

Do I feel any better? Not really, I'm feeling like an emotional wreck.

You know the feeling you get when you have had such an emotional shock, and you just feel devastated, your mind and body just kinda goes into numb, mode.

Well I have that big time.

The Captain keeps telling me how proud he is of me, as it was such a horrible experience to go through, I can tell you I feel way away from being proud, I don't know if I want to scream or just sit an cry.

To make matters worse our once calm sea is now a choppy big wave mess, the boat is going like a cork screw, with each wave, we are rocking and rolling all over.

7pm

I have been on watch for awhile now, as I had a very long lay down today, am quite seasick once again, we have the most ugly sea, out here with almost 30knts gusts, it's shocking, I just hate it, and the waves man they are those big momma's, one hit us side on and a wall of water soaked the cockpit, yeah the one and only time I did not have the covers down.

The highlight today was, I sat here and watched a pod of Dolphins, entertain me for a good hour or so, they are so much fun to watch, they actually love these big waves and surf them all the time, one even done a brilliant acrobat performance, was just great.

They just seem to love being around the boat, I'm not sure what it is but they dive under from side to side, and all around the front of the boat, then they take off and turn around and I swear they race each other back to the boat. I could watch them all day and never get tried of them.

Well tomorrow is another day.
