Miami to BVI

There is more than one way to get someplace other than the direct route as seen on a chart or map. There are many many yachts of US registry in the Bahamas and in the Virgins. That doesn't mean they all sailed there directly. Some of the motor boats maybe but sailboats - few, if any are foolish enough to attempt such a long slog against wind and current. Since you don't seem to realize this FACT it tells me you are totally unqualified to try such a thing. Forget it. That is the route I am planning on taking. *Abacos, along the top edge of the Bahamas, down Southeast towards Turks & Caicos, then bypassing DR and PR totally, right into USVI then BVI. *You sure I can't stick close to the islands? *Hitting Bermuda for the sake of a single tack, is a bit much. You'd better CHANGE your stupid plans or you're going to end up dead. You are acting totally irrationally. You are acting like some stupid twit. You don't try what you are talking about in a sailboat even in the off-season and you are going to attempt it at the height of the hurricane season. You are an idiot! Typical of the fool who thinks sailing is something to do by brute force, without knowing the first thing about it, relying upon chance and good luck. Well, your brute force ain't squat compared to Mother Nature's brute force. And you're good luck will run out. You will probably die. WAKE UP! Wilbur Hubbard This coming from a guy that says everybody in a newsgroup has no experience, and he is the only person who does. Sounds like you need something to deal with your insecurity. Hey maybe I should just ride over on your boat, since it's the only one that can do it. And I do know something about it. I've been on boats for over 30 years now, probably longer than you. Reading the weather, isn't about chance. But I bet you think hurricanes form instantly. WAKE UP! |

Maybe you should just pull your head out of your arse! And I wouldn't let your like anywhere near my boat. You are an accident waiting to happen. And I do know something about it.

And I bet you think your little old, let's see if I can guess it right, Hunter 33? can outrun a hurricane. Good luck! I don't think you have any idea of the distances or time involved.
