09.30 a.m. Departure from Bragdøya. Cloudy, Wind calm. Rowing out.
11.40 a.m. Wind SW 3-4 m/s (light to gentle breeze) The sail is set, and we slowly cross our way westwards through a long swell.
02.00 p.m. Wind SW 4-6 m/s (gentle to moderate breeze). We fasten the tow rope around the mast and mast fish. We recieve the tow rope from the support vessel 'Cable One', and for the first time test the new towing system. At first nice and easy with 3-4 knots. Then with up to 10 knots. It seems like a good system, that will work also in emergency situations.
06.30 p.m. Arrive at Sprangereid on Lindesnes.
