We have been in a holding pattern for the last 8 days at anchor in marsh harbour. we have taken advantage of this time to catch up with friends and fellow boaters. The wind has been blowing 20-30knots with the occasional squall increasing the winds to 35knots. It seems that everytime we walk Maddie a squall gets us before we return to the boat.

We are looking for a window to get stateside. We are keeping our fingers crossed for next Thursday. the seas are avg around 6-9ft at the moment but should subside to 4-6 ft next week. We are aiming to make landfall at Cape Canaveral but if the weather holds we will ride the stream to St Augustine.
