WE had a long night last night with winds in the 30 knot range until 2am, and 20-25 knots and big seas ever since. All while crossing the last of the gulf stream and running into up to 5 knots of current in places that our weather model told us there would be no current at all! I guess we will be using different models during the Bermuda Race!
All are fine onboard and it looks like we will cross the front in the next couple of hours and then begin to see the winds drop into a more enjoyable range.
Cold, windy, and grey out here right now!
