NEWS:
The weather has been terrific so far, clear bright sunny days with little cloud cover. The breeze bas been up and down, but mainly in to 10 knot range. We have been making good speed although we have been effected by adverse current of up almost 1 knot from time to time.
At this point the forecast is not looking good for continuing on past Bermuda so we have altered course toward there for now. We will continue checking the forecasts but for now it is likely that we will have to make a brief stop to allow the front to pass before continuing on.
The fishing reels have been quiet without even a single run-off in the past 24 hours.
