After watching the weather patterns for the past week we have a beautiful weather window for our 370nm crossing. Our course to KeyWest is NE 46 degrees. Winds are ESE 110 dergees at 10-15 mph. Wave height is 2-3 feet from 115 degrees.
So we should have wind in our sales and quarting seas off our stern if the weather guys are right.
We are departing at 10:00 and calculating a 7mph average speed should arrive in KeyWest late afternoonon Saturday.

Will post as soon as we can upon our arrival.
