[status] racing to Cabo before hurricane Willa, 245 NM to go. No room at Cabo?s marinas, plan to drop anchor, do our formalities, and leave immediately for refuge in La Paz if Wilma cuts too close. Surprisingly strong 1.5-2knts NW current, demanding more power. 1475 rpm, 11.7 knts (should be 13 in normal conditions), 12.5 GPH. Approximately 850gal. of fuel left, no worries. Smooth ride in spite of the 1m beam seas. So far, so good! Just one more hurricane to dodge, that?s 8 this year!
