Who is going around the high then?

[fireball]

Tricky call to make .... do you slog it upwind at 10Kn all the way .... or do you try and sneak around that high and get some downwind sailing in at double the speed?! .....

Uh, I need to make the turn first so will be assessing the next tactics in about 24 hours

Going south just now but still got the option to go East for a day or 2.
If you go east now I think you will have to stick with that.
It is looking very tricky

Going South. One look at the polars tells you that if there's the slightest chance of downwind sailing you've got to go for that.

The North Atlantic circuit seems much easier than this, I'm glad I'm not out there in a boat!

I think it is south for me too. but i may try to tack a bit to gain some better ground.
