Even though it is nothing as compared to Eastern Germany, the south also has had a lot of rain, and the Rhine is higher by about 1 meter as compared to normal levels for this time of the year.
You can see by the flow around the markers that the current is significant.
Our SOG (speed over the ground) is sometime down to 3 kt (without a current we would do 7 kt at the same RPM.
We are told this will get worse as we get past Koblenz!!! We will have to wait and see!!!
