6AM Bermuda Local Time (5AM EST)
Good News!
For the 4th time in the last 12 months, Morpheus and crew have arrived in Bermuda.
Our last day was spent under power (and under rain!)
We have now "arrived" outside St. Georges Harbor only to be asked to "standby" for almost 2 hours while we wait for the local ocean research vessel Atlantic Explorer (due at 7am) to enter the harbor in front of us.
I think the truth is that the local customs office regular hours begin at 8am and the authorities prefer not to wake someone early.
In any case, we are happy to be here and look forward to checking in, and then finding a really good anchoring spot in the harbor.
From what we hear Sunday night may be far more exciting than any part of the trip down. Something about gusts to 55 knots??? More on that later....

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.
