We have light winds in the forecast for this next passage from Florida to Cape Fear. It's 400 miles and we have the Gulf Stream but we also have a big wind shift that we will be racing against to make for port. Should be a fun challenge to see if we can keep old Sparrow from needing her engine.  Thanks for listening! Help Support this podcast with the following links, Thanks for listening! Support...
