I just heard through my weather router that a major cold front is coming into the states with freezing weather all the way to Florida. Its warm and humid on Aolele but not uncomfortable. Full moon last night was wonderful allowing us to see the full horizon at night. We are having rain squalls coming and going bringing some high winds. No problem however as we just shorten canvas and wait it out.
We are seeing some patches of sargaso weed now as we approach the distant islands. 550 miles out now and expect to arrive Saturday morning. Weather is stable through our land fall so we shouldnt have any drama in wrapping up the passage. Cant wait for a stable nights sleep! Sleeping in a small yacht on an ocean passage is like trying to sleep inside a washing machine thats spinning while someone is beating on the outside of it with a rubber mallet. Especially in 15 foot swells.
