Flying Pig will be taking advantage of an unusually good window to
make our passage to Ft. Pierce, where we'll be on the hard for several months during family business. You can follow our progress by clicking tinyurl.com/flyingpigspot, which holds a week's worth of locations at 10-minute intervals. We'll initially be going NW from Raccoon Cay to avoid the Cochinas Banks but staying south enough to avoid the Middle Ground shoals. From there we'll go directly west over the Great Bahama Bank and pick up the favorable current in the Hurricane Flats where we'll turn NW again, riding it until the area near Orange Cay. From there we'll choose the most favorable wind direction to pick up the Gulf Stream. Current weather information suggests that it should be both favorable winds and seas for our travels taking advantage of the 3-knot-plus lift it can provide. We'll turn out at Ft. Pierce, or Lake Worth if it's apparent we won't get to FTP comfortably before dark, anticipated to be on Sunday afternoon. Those interested may also catch us before and after we speak with Chris on 4045.0 SSB, USB at 6:30-7:30AM, other than Sunday, when he's off. Fair Winds to all our friends afloat; we'll see the shoreside folks soon! L8R Skip -- Morgan 461 #2 SV Flying Pig KI4MPC See our galleries at www.justpickone.org/skip/gallery !
