On the Home Stretch

We are in the home stretch now, with 230 miles to go to reach Antigua. The wind is still very light, about 5 to 8 knots true wind and we continue to motor sail trying to optimize the fuel to get the best speed and most distance from the remaining 30 gallons of fuel. We anticipate arrival in Falmouth Harbor late Monday evening or sometime Tuesday morning.

Since there is little to no wind, we are working on the fine balance of stretching the last 45 gallons of fuel to reach Antigua. Present location is 22 degrees 25N 62 degrees 31W. We anticipate reaching Falmouth Harbor Monday evening or Tuesday morning.
