Yesterday we sailed out of Long Island and by late afternoon were in blue rather than green water. Saw a school of dolphins that came and swam next to the boat. Marvelous.

If you have been tracking us you will have seen we enjoyed Long Island so much that we turned around. We had several small problems during the trip and at our 7pm weather briefing learned that we would have to turn around immediately or continue to Bermuda. Phil decided it would be prudent to return. So we are on our way. All are well.
