[weather] Winds ENE 15-20 kts; seas E 2m; 35% cloud cover; bar 1013, steady.
[status] Another nice day of sailing with blue skies, white cotton ball clouds, and fresh winds all day. Looks like the weather up ahead, on Friday or Saturday, could get a bit nasty - NE 30 kt winds and 3.5 m NE swell, 10 sec period - we will be watching that and possibly change our approach from windward of the islands to leeward (although that would leave us subject to funneling of strong winds through the channels). Also watching closely Hurricane Fabio off the coast of Mexico, currently heading W but forecast to turn WNW and then start to die out on Friday several hundred miles to the east. "All is well on board!" Thanks for following us on YIT!
