    83 knots – isn’t that pretty much the standard for N Sea ?

    Yes can be.
    Problem is we don’t have any thrusters on the rig so have to rely on 2 boats to keep us in position.
    If the lines break,we’ll start drifting,then it will be fun! 😯

    Were about 100miles west of Alesund at the moment.
