Back in the U.S. at Riviera Beach where we'll get a new or rebuilt alternator and other chores.
America is both convenient and disgusting.

Crossing
Our crossing was beautifully benign. Soft wind flowing in the same direction as the gulf stream. Minimal waves. 8.5 hours in the middle of the deep blue sea. Daylight.
We traveled well south of our rhumb line until we hit the Current and then headed for the Lake Worth inlet with the Current. Wow. Over two hours at 7.5-8 knots, topping out at 8.9. That'll clean the ol' barnacles off!

Enjoy following you, and glad you had such a great crossing. I must take issue with a comment describing America. You may have come upon some people or areas that don't fit your beliefs or desire to spend time at, but as a whole, it's a wonderful country that many have fought and given the ultimate to preserve its freedom. That freedom allows people such as yourselves to enjoy so many of the wonderful places as you travel. I think your comment was a bit out of line.
Have a wonderful trip north, hope all the mechanical gremlins have worked their way out of Rosie and she runs like a top. Be safe, enjoy!
