We have had a mixture of sailing and motor sailing but have not managed to keep up enough speed to clear the area given us to avoid by Thursday night so have decided to go to Bermuda, which is not that much out of our way. We should arrive Friday morning well before adverrse
weather hits {hopefully}
Tuesday was a day of rain and squalls with wind up and down in strength and changes in direction. This slowed us down but now as I write on Wednesday just before sunset, we have had a lovely sunny day with very little wind, so we are motoring slowly to Bermuda. Slowly as I dont want
to arrive there in the dark, as its surrounded by reefs. Luckily we have electronic charts of the island and I have already called them on the satphone to get preliminary directions.
A few minor niggles with the boat, arent there always, but nothing too serious.
Dont know yet how long we have to wait but we might as well enjoy the break as we only have to be in Antigua by the 29th Nov when my daughter and her partner fly out.
