Re: Stus-List CREWMEMBER NEEDED Halifax to Bermuda Direct in October
Dan, I can't be at all certain that far out. My best guess is that it looks like this current low moves off on Sunday, then another weak one forecast on Monday, (though I wouldn’t be surprised to see that intensify). Looks calm on Tuesday then a solid scary low on Wednesday. I wouldn’t call it a good window. I'd be counting on five days for the passage on your boat...or mine, so if you left on Sunday and had good conditions you should arrive on Friday. Let’s revisit this as the time draws nearer. As I may have mentioned, I’m a fan of the GFS models, which is what I’m basing the above on. GFS does tend to underestimate the intensity of lows, which is why I would be keeping an eye on the one for Monday.

Re: Stus-List CREWMEMBER NEEDED Halifax to Bermuda Direct in October
Hi Andy, We had trouble locking down a crew member for the direct Halifax to Bermuda route until just recently - I think we found a retired gentleman with offshore experience who seems keen to join us. That said, I've been watching the weather using Windy.com and we've had this cyclical pattern highs followed by lows moving up the Atlantic seaboard. The next one will hit us on Saturday, however once this low pressure passes the prediction for next week is starting to look ideal - calm conditions for several days from here to Bermuda (I think) - If you don't mind I'd like to get your take on next week as a potential window for a Bermuda passage?

Re: Stus-List CREWMEMBER NEEDED Halifax to Bermuda Direct in October
Dan, When are you leaving Halifax? I'm off from Newport on. Swan 46 called Thankful on Nov 2 (depending on weather, of course). Seems like as good excuse as any to meet for a cocktail if we're there at the same time.

Hey all, we had a qualified crew member lined up for mid-late October for our passage from Halifax to Bermuda, however he has had sudden life changes and cannot make the trip. We're seeking someone with at least a year of sailing experience - more is better, preferably off-shore experience / passage making. It's not a paid position, however we are providing meals and a private cabin or sea berth. Travel to and from departure/destination is at the expense of the crew, however we will offer passage to the US Virgin Islands, our second leg. We expect 5-7 days for the Bermuda passage.
