Title: Leaving Bermuda

32:38.3500N 64:27.4940W

At 0810 hrs we pulled up the anchor and got on our way. The wind is from the south west, a gentle 15 knots, and we are headed NNE as the forecast indicates lighter winds at the current latitude.

Yesterday we toured the Island by ferry and bus, stopping off for a while on the north coast at Horseshoe Bay for an ice cream. I was very impressed with Bermuda, the people are genuinely friendly and the buildings and landscape attractive. It is expensive although we found a cash and carry to re-stock the boat which was pretty reasonable.
