The Ushuaia bunted and bobbed her way through a head sea for five days before the high alluvial cliffs that mark the entrance to New Gulf loomed through the chilled mist of a storming morning.

We tacked ship three times in the course of the day, and made little progress against the head sea.

"One's heart is apt to fail when one looks forward and sees only the snow-squalls to drive one back to leeward, and the steep head seas."

The weather was stormy; the wind was blowing something of a gale and head seas were breaking over the destroyers' decks.

They got sail upon the sloop and drove her out into a confused head sea, through which she laboured with flooded decks, making very little to windward.
