- Amazing wind and swell!

On Saturday night I sailed from Anguilla to Antigua on a starboard reach all the way. The wind was consistently South West to West 10 – 15 knots and this pattern has been there for some days now. In 30 yrs sailing in the Caribbean I have never seen such persistent southerly and westerly wind. The swell has made most of the normal anchorages very uncomfortable or untenable between Anguilla and Antigua and for the first time in many years the north bays in St Barts were better places to anchor overnight!

- Something out there?
  • From: "John Burnie" <john at yachtindaba.com>
  • Date: Sun, 6 Aug 2006 22:42:49 -0400

Here are some charts and evidence of a developing tropical pattern. There are two lows at 20 west and 40 west, a developed Atlantic Ridge, low wind shear and ambient sea temperature is 28 degrees and over. Probabilities are up and conditions look favourable for tropical formation – it may be nothing but we are looking at our plans just in case anything comes our way in Guadeloupe!!
