Passage Update

Fast sailing last 24 hours in mostly F7. Had to slow down for a few icebergs on radar last night, last little something from the furious fifties which we left behind 0430 local (UTC-2). Winds mellowed in the early morning hours. We are headed north until out of the roaring 40's then will look NE or E to get around the South Atlantic High. Cheers - Christopher & the Crew
