We’re about 30 miles offshore of Charleston, SC, still headed for Cape Fear,
which is still 130 miles away. We spent last night dodging thunderstorms,
and managed to stay clear of them. We did experience some rain and some
localized headwinds that really slowed the boat. Now the storms have moved
out and we’re waiting for the wind to fill in. The forecast shows good wind
for the next couple days that should hopefully help us click off the miles
more quickly.

We were further delayed for an hour this morning when I hooked into a large
tuna that we released, story and pics to follow on the blog when we get
back.
