Pinzon’s plan – heading downstream.
Thursday, November 26th, 2009Cloud band has moved south, just below Scarlet's track.
Here is our worst case vessel traffic image. There is the intense north-south routes along 10 W, plus another couple of traffic routes running from Northeast to southwest marked by the two red lines.
SST shows we are in some relatively warmer water, and to our east, we see southward flowing colder water.
And zooming all the way in, but keeping the red traffic lines up are are heading northeast along one of the lines. Currents have been favorable this week, alternating between NE and very small. This has been making everyone happy on both sides of the Atlantic. We are making some distance, getting ourselves closer to shore for next week's trip to Spain.
