The birthplace of the wind

Otherwise known as Adak - so we have been told. Lovely idea and pretty accurate.

AIS box installed and we hope to leave around 0700 tomoz. Berri a
disaster area, but I'll be sleeping aboard tonight and will do some
tidying up.

Dutch has been wonderful - even though it's raining again. Hope to be
in Nome in about a week - wx looks reasonable. We'll officially enter
the US there - local DHS is in Anchorage and has sent out papers
ahead.

Daylight early departure a good idea - gets us through a very busy
shipping channel just north of here, west of Akutan pass and mayte
even through the fishing fleet, although they are having a hard time
and have moved north.

Next one from the boat, AGW.
