Everything fine here. Hope that you are all
well.
Weather Forecast for wind at the entrance to the
Windward Passage proved to be correct. Wind kicked in just inside the south end
and has been blowing a steady 15-25kts all night and still going strong. Making
good progress towards Gt Inagua Island, though we may be going too fast as it
will still be dark when we arrive. If so then we will wait outside the
harbour till daylight or try the next island.
We were caught by a rain squall last night, which
is quite spectacular in the dark. Never seen so much rain at one time. (Glad I
resealed the leaky hatch before we left).
Will send a further update tomorrow.
