The weather bouy off North Manitou reports breeze holding steady from the SE at 4 to 5 knots. Not exactly the perfect forecast to make the island by sunrise. The forecast calls for an increase to 8-10 knots overnight, clocking around from the West. We shall see.

All of the GL70’s fleet has reported crossing the 45th parallel and the wait begins.
Section 1 boats are begining to reach that imaginary line in the water, and some multihulls as well.

Equation has a chance to get here in short order, but right now it is looking like Windquest will be the only participant to make it to the island for last call Sunday in 2007. I am sure the 70’s fleet is planning to make it here for breakfast!!
