No shortcuts allowed on the English Channel!

At 6.30 PM we tried to sail thru one of several windfarms on our way to Amsterdam, but a patrol boat (registered in Panama -  a case of outsourcing of guard duty?) contacted us and in very definite terms told us to change course which we did by 60°. Consequently we had to make a detour costing us some 60-90 minutes

The red dot on the radar screen is Jennifer and all the long yellow lines represent the windfarm forest on our starboard side.
