Day 5: We're back in summer clothes!

Information reported to Mindy via sat phone.  The sat phone data link is currently not working.

Heron and crew are enjoying their ride south!  Day 1 started with big wind as they blasted out of Hampton.  This was followed by a day or so of light air - light enough to require some engine time.  By midday today (Tuesday the 15th), they are roughly at the latitude of the Florida Keys and the Bahamas Vero Beach Florida.  I spoke to Peter today on the sat phone (before the communication evaporated into the ether) and he reported the change of clothing to summer garb.  So, at about the half-way mark, all is well on the high seas.
