Ready to leave Greenport

We arrived safely in Greenport on Friday evening at 5:30pm EST. On the way down we had minor engine heating problem which was due to weeds in the raw water intake. All is fixed and ready to go.

On the way down we caught a blue fish which will be barbequed later today.

Saturday was spent in briefings about weather and the gulf stream. The predictions are for good weather for the crossing and the ability to use a meander in the gulf stream, for about 200nm, to aid our transit.

At 7:15am there will be a final weather briefing and we will set sail for Bermuda.
