Last Friday with 7 days to go before our leaving day, I took a peek at the weather for the 29th, and was disappointed with what I saw. An easterly headwind of F5 and more. Not a comfortable first passage and indeed if it got much stronger we would be delaying the leaving date.
Move on two days and now look at the forecast for the same day. Winds down to F2, not enough to sail, so now it looks like we may be motoring at least some of the time. Not ideal, but better than being battered for a 5 hour passage.
The fingers are still crossed that it will be good weather to sail on our first day..
