Harrowing crossing to the Bahamas. [emoji23]

I love the hourly updates. At 1 o'clock he says life is hard with all the rough seas (appears fairly nice), and at two o'clock he says they are getting beaten to death (still appears to have pretty nice conditions).

At the halfway point he realizes that his dad, or whoever is in the small boat, may run out of fuel, since they realized they are bucking the Gulf Stream current and only making 3-4 knots.

I'm not an experienced ocean crosser, so I don't mean to make fun of anyone, but I hope the weather is that nice when we cross to the Bahamas.
