The hurricane has passed, and the clouds are telling that light airs are coming. We did not have access to the pretty and colorful charts that our friends had, but we did have a few things on board.
First, they and friends on shore were telling us to go North to avoid the calm conditions that were coming in.
Second, the clouds were warning of the changing winds and we needed to turn North to stay in the wind as the high pressure system began coming in.
While we are no longer going straight towards our destination, we are keeping with the winds and maintaining our speed. Day after day, we are doing 100 nautical miles per day for the first time in our lives and we have been able to hold this pace for the entire way so far!
