We left Halifax at 4:30 local time on Monday Sept 26 after a great visit. At about 8pm the wind picked up to 20 knots apparent off the starboard bow and we rode the wind for over 12 hours. A totally awesome sail down the Nova Scotia coast. We are now clear of the tip of Nova Scotia on our way to Cape Cod Mass.
If the weather forecast holds we should complete the 370 NM passage from Halifax to the Cape Cod Canal on Thursday morning. We are presently under sail in a 10 Knot west wind that we are expecting to shift to east later today.The SPOT batteries died last night but have been replaced. I hope it didn't cause any concern to any of the followers.
I am working on a video of life on-board that I will post when we have an internet connection.

If you get a chance, check out the whales in the Stellwagen Bank Whale Sanctuary between Cape Cod and Boston.
