| Atlantic Crossing in January: Feasible? (Cape Verde to Caribbean)
Hi all! I am coordinating a sailing expedition and we have been reconsidering our schedule for the atlantic crossing from Cape Verde to the Caribbean (Barbados or thereabouts) From what I have been reading, people "usualy" try to leave mid-October to mid-November for such a crossing. However, I wonder if the beginning of January would still be OK?  We've checked the Atlantic Pilot Atlas (by J.Clarke) and winds, currents still look good. Do you see any major problems to cross in January 2010? This will be on a reinforced and well equipped 42ft Bavaria sailing yacht. All advice welcome! Tom |
