uh....not sure what to do here! I am scheduled to leave Stonington CT Sunday a.m. to deliver a 53 ft sailboat to Bermuda (probably arrive Thurs) refuel then on to Bitter End in the BVI. I suppose we could grab a mooring in Bermuda and wait out the storm if it heads for us. What are your thoughts Frank? I suggested to the skipper we pull a mooring in Stonington instead!Thanks.Anne
FR: No way I'm going to touch that one. Please check with the NWS and the Coast Guard before setting out. Good luck!
