So. On the road again. I had very little wind when
I left on Thursday, and struggled out through the North Tunnel of Chesapeake at
0300. There after I got a breeze & finally collapsed to a wall of sleep at
0900, about 9 miles offshore. Course 045degs. Boat is going fine now that I have
18 knots SE. I'm doing about 5 knots on a broad reach. The seas are less
boisterous clopser inshore than in the Gulf Stream, & I hope conditions stay
moderate. Bit of a Norther on Sunday I think. I should be in the lee of
Conneticut & RI then so reaching east should be OK. Better seas but lots of
other boats out here. Am gonna have little sleep again. My heartfelt Thanks to
all for the assistance I had while in Norfolk. I'm at a loss for
words.
