Dodging Hurricanes

Confetti is safe and enjoying a leisurely pace to the western edge of out safety zone, to wait out TS Darby. It was a fast day of new storm data that got our crew spun into action. First to reduce our speed (to not pass into the warning zone), second to call around to more than 2 sources to plan our approach strategy. I never thought that a race called the FUN race to Hawaii would mean so much more. :-) We are all on a little less sleep than usual so, its probably a good thing for a slow pace to catch our wind.
Next update on the tropical storm weather is 4am from now. So, let's just sit back, pop a cold one and watch another Pacific sunset!
Last night: we were treated with an amazing full moon and a sky full of stars. Tonight should be more of the same.
Confetti out!
