Gibb Kane has joined us and we are off for Rye, NY!! 300+ miles with a predicted arrival of very early Tuesday AM.
Our course will take us North to the top of the Chesapeake, and then through the C&D Canal, down the Delaware Bay, out past Cape May and then North to NYC, up the East River, into Long Island Sound and finally to a mooring off the American Yacht Club.
This is big!! The end of our journey to the East Coast, and the beginning of our Summer cruising New England.
The weather is grey and gloomy, not perfect. Lots of showers and chance of thunderstorms. Definitely not my favorite. But, the winds are to be in the 10-20 knot range out of the SSE, so once in the ocean we should make good time.
Morpheus was designed by Carl Schumacher, built by Davie Norris Boatbuilders in New Zealand and launched in 2002. She spent her first 18 months cruising the South Pacific before reaching her home port of San Francisco. Since that time, Morpheus has been raced and cruised extensively. This blog will document her ongoing adventures.
