Against the tide on the English Channel

Sunday May 12th. At the time of writing this we have been traveling in the English Channel during 3 hours after leaving Bay of Biscay. The tide against us is very strong, we wind and engine power we are slowly moving towards the Isle of Wight at a speed of 3.7-4.2 knots. Estimated travel time from this point: 38-40 hours. On starboard side I can see the lights on the French side of the channel.
