Winds are up as Wild Turkey heads home

Some time this week-end I am expecting an SMS with contact being made from Capt Ben and Greg to say Wild Turkey is in range and heading home.

With the weather being overcast, rainy and some what windy, I thought I should just check the weather. I think Capt Ben will be ending his season with us in the same manner that he started it - STRONG WINDS ! ! Wow what a season for the winds and rough seas.

UPDATED North Tropical Waters, Cooktown to Cardwell:

Friday until midnight: SE winds 15/20 knots.
Saturday: SE winds 15/20 knots, increasing to 20/25 knots during the morning.
Sunday: SE winds 25/30 knots.

They will be glad to tie Wild Turkey up after punching home in larger seas once again. I am sure they will of had a great life experience but I am also sure they will be pleased for a solid non moving shower with unlimited hot water, to lay on the couch and to sleep in a still bed !

Updated Friday night:
Message from Captain Ben is that they are heading home - at Flora Reef 120 miles out still with the ETA being the early hours of Saturday night or Sunday morning.
