Elmarleen leaves for Bermuda
After a thundery night and a considerable amount of rain Elmarleen with new crew
member Matt Glasgow leaves Fairhaven Ship Yard for Bermuda. The boat went back in
the water yesterday with her new bearing and repaired rudder, a repaired engine and
a new backing plate for the lower shroud broken on the way over in the race.
We left under engine in very little visibility. We are heading for the southern end
of Cuttyhunk island where we should be able to bear away and hoist sails. Current
conditions are about 10 knots true with the sun shining. ItÂ’s looking like we should
have a fetch on starboard for the first day or so.
Good bye USA
