May be wet today... a disturbance arrives in the weather just as we all arrive in Antigua. Looks like the Garmin says we have 125 miles to go to Antigua. We are East of there in Atlantic in darkness, but we will see at least 1 sunrise and 1 sunset before our arrival in a port (hopefully) on Monday early.

Garmin says we have - at current slow speed and course - 28 hours to go - We may need to slow down.. We are caught between arriving in worse weather (in night time dark hours) and later sunrise ... set for 10:30am UTC (remember their local clocks say it will be 4 hours earlier)

We will sail faster in the day as winds increase Sunday till about 4 in morning when they really pick up.

Have wavered back and forth over which port to go into... Will not go into English Harbor. Now considering - depending on time of being there - either FALMOUTH harbor (to get off seas earlier - or Jolly Harbor approaches.

We had a perfect day of sailing Saturday, but it was hot... 86 degrees and sunny. More of same likely Sunday except when these small squalls go through. We can see them in night on RADAR, despite darkness till Moon comes up at 2 o'clock or so.
