Well, after 4 months of preperations and countless $$ dumped into the boat she is finally ready, well not really. We are still wating on a new pipe birth that we are installing in the stern cabin for a seabed and extra storage. We are also missing our brochures and a few other things.
We plan to leave Wed October 1st around 10am on the outgoing tide, I sure hope we have everything completed by then.
We have picked up two crew, Josh and Austin, who we met in our STCW95 class last week.
Our trip should be fairly easy as the weather forecast seems to be pretty quiet for the next 180 hours. We have enough fuel for 4 days motoring plus reserves for 4 hours a day to charge the batteries. Our route takes us ESE to 25N 65W and then hang a right for a downwind run or beamreach to the VI. We esitimate 7.5 days if we have consistant winds.
