NY to Bahamas - First Time - Offshore

[s/v Jedi]

stay out of the icw… it’s for stinkpotters, sail offshore as soon as weather is favorable!

And the weather looks fine, Tammy is half an ocean away

Hey OP! Any updates? How's it going?

Hello everyone !
Just a quick update. More details to follow later in.
I left NY on October 23 following my original plan !
Yea, I went sailing offshore and it was the best sailing ever in my life !
I have to come to my alternate, West Palm Beach because one of my solar panels got hit by the boom on a jibe on a windstorm (Cyrian)
All went very well and I am super happy with the boat performance.
Although the first week was an easy ride, the second week the wind switched to NE and it was a little rough, having no wind or 35 kts and had to heave to for some 20 hs or so.
The trip was 14 days long and I have arrived last Sunday 5th of November sound and safe.
