Underway to Aden, Yemen.

We're currently underway to the town of Aden in Yemen and are sailing with a group of 26 yachts for safety purposes as we are passing through the Gulf of Aden and the high risk pirate area. We have current against us and are motoring along at 4 knots, it's quite an impressive sight to see so many yachts sailing together in a tight group but obviously it has it's disadvantages as well. We're at the front of the group so enjoying some space but with 26 captains all having their own ideas on speeds and distances there's never a dull moment on the radio!
