Jerome Rand departs Cape Cod for Florida in November aboard his Westsail 32, Mighty Sparrow, and encounters heavy weather within the first days of the passage.▶ 0:05 Roughly 70 miles north of the Gulf Stream, with a major wind shift forecast, he prepares for the blow by moving the life raft into the cockpit, clearing the deck, and stowing everything below.▶ 2:43 He reefs down to triple-reefed main and storm jib, then holds position to keep a buffer from the Stream.▶ 4:20 The barometer drops to 982 hPa in 24 hours.▶ 6:19 Starlink fails in the heavy rolling; he falls back on an Iridium Go for weather forecasts.▶ 2:08 He considers heaving to for sleep and ultimately gets through the night, after which conditions flatten quickly ahead of a Gulf Stream crossing.▶ 6:15 The final ten days — quiet sailing through the Bermuda Triangle and the Bermuda High — he omits as uneventful.▶ 0:25 Staying well north of the Gulf Stream before a frontal passage buys maneuvering room and avoids the worst wind-against-current sea state.
