Racing Weather to Cape May

Day #10, Saturday, June 5, 2010
Time of Report: 2130 Z
Position: 37.26N , -73.57W
Heading: North, Northeast
Speed: 6 knots over the water

The last blog posting "Slicker than Chicken Teriyaki" was a little late in getting reported, my apologies for that. The race is on to Cape May as winds are expected to be between 20 and 25 knots by the time they arrive tomorrow. Winds at the time of this report were South, Southwest from 10 to 15 knots. They are sailing with full sails (they took out the reefs) and are about 100 miles from Cape May and expect to be there in the morning.

Dinner was simple - Veggie Soup.
Woody reported that his best purchase and most highly used item is his GO ANYWHERE chair that he bought from West Marine. He referred to it as his "BarcaLounger". Note the difference between the two!


Looking forward to getting an update directly from Woody tomorrow or on Monday when he settles in to Cape May! And I'll close with this fine quote, by Mark Twain:

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Tracy ;)
