Operation EYE of the World Begins

If all is going as planned EYE of the World-ers Adam and Ian are cruising along the coast of Florida on their boat.

Adam called yesterday afternoon from the topside to say that they were in Fort Lauderdale and cleaning out the last bits. They had hoped to shove off at midnight early this morning. He said that some storms might head their way by the time they get to Cape Canaveral, so they might duck in and seek shelter there.

In preparation for the relatively short voyage from Fort Lauderdale, FL to Yorktown, VA, Ian and Adam drove down with Ryan who is support crew for Team Velocity in this year's Tybee 500. Once they were down there Ryan drove them around to pick up the last minute supplies and then they got to work on getting the ship, ship shape for sailing the sea.

The winds look good for them either out of the W or SW ranging from 5-15 kts. It's not until Tuesday that things might be rough with Northerly winds.

That's all for now.
