Vance Watch - Day 2
03 November 2014 | 27 41.36'N:114 53.34'W, Turtle Bay, Baja Mexico
Mark
Vance, which is now a hurricane, is vearing a little further East with each new report every six hours. Even though Vance is a hurricane now, it is expected to start dissipating rapidly starting tonight. Looking at all the information available, it seems that heading South today (one stage to Bahia Santa Maria) can be done with minimum risk.
Our next destination is Bahia Santa Maria which we should reach Wednesday evening. From there it is only about a 36 hour sail to Cabo. If Vance shifts back into our path, we will hold out longer in Bahia Santa Maria. If Vance keeps shifting East as it is projected to do, we will look golden. Because Vance is going to pass Cabo on Tuesday / Wednesday, we should know our next plan even before we reach Bahia Santa Maria.
The organizer of the rally was just on the radio and announced that the rally is heading South today.
Wish us good luck!
