As expected from the forecast, Dameon has faced a long slow row into wind on Monday, traveling only 15 miles in his first 10 hours, and only 9 miles in the last 8 hours. Twice in the early evening Dameon pulled out into the Strait and into the wind only to give up and row back to shelter of East Thurlow Island. Many others made the same choice, laying up on a lee shore. Will Dameon make another push when the tide changes or wait for morning?
Unfortunately, tomorrow’s forecast is for worse winds, and not dropping into single digits until Thursday morning. Team Of One’s stoicism will be tested but prove up to the task.
