Hurricane

The track of my first day's journey has been uploaded to NautiG (You need the latest flash player in order to use NautiG). Click the "Track" button to see my path, as recorded by my gps. I left town in the afternoon and sailed for about four hours. The wind was at my back at 10-15 knots, and I sailed the whole way wing on wing or on a broad reach. I hope that's a good omen for the trip.

I don't think I'm going anywhere today, except maybe across the anchorage to a more protected spot. The wind has been howling all night. There's a small craft advisory and a gale warning for tonight.
