Passage to the US Day 3

The last 24 hours have brought light winds and decreasing seas. We are currently motor sailing and the seas are almost flat.
We are getting close to crossing the Gulf Stream. The Sargasso Sea on the warm side of the Gulf Stream has been great. We have been in the Sargasso Sea since mid November and it will be sad to leave. We will probably have to wear more than a T-shirt and shorts for the first time since mid November starting tomorrow. :(
We will celebrate Terri and my 26th anniversary at sea today.
Right now we are about 180 miles off the Georgia coast just south of Savannah and are currently at 31 degrees, 25 minutes N, 77 degrees,52 minutes West. We are 210 miles from our destination of Beaufort, NC.

The SPOT will be on periodically to track our progress real time.

Jon

  1. Happy Anniversary Guys! It's been great following the blog. Nicole's photos made it feel like an extended winter vacation for me. Safe trip home, see you in The Bay.
