Subject: Storm? changes schedule
?
Dear Clifton ARS and radio friends,
Sunday 15th Oct. should have been a sea day as we headed to St John's Newfoundland with a planned arrival on Monday 16th Oct. St John's was to be our last Canadian port before crossing the Atlantic for the Azores.
However, a violent storm now approaching Newfoundland and the eastern seaboard of Nova Scotia has caused us to abandon our visit to Newfoundland and we are now heading east across the Atlantic to the Azores two days earlier than planned as we try and out run this storm system.
Unfortunately, we will still encounter gale or storm force winds associated with this deep depression. As a result we will not be able to operate the radio as the upper decks are closed and all the deck furniture has either been removed or tied down.
We will update you if and when conditions improve as we cross the Atlantic
73 de Tony es Suzanne
