Leo Goolden and his crew are six days into a transatlantic passage from Fort Lauderdale aboard the wooden boat Tally Ho.▶ 2:21 The vessel is currently tracking the Gulf Stream, which provides a consistent speed boost of two to four knots, resulting in overall speeds between 8 and 11 knots.▶ 3:36 The crew maintains a Great Circle route, which requires a northerly heading that appears curved on flat charts but represents the shortest distance on a globe.▶ 4:44 The crew operates on a two-on, six-off watch schedule, frequently jibing to maintain optimal wind angles.▶ 8:36 While the boat has maintained good speed, the crew has encountered minor mechanical issues, including a failed wash-down pump pressure switch and a small tear in the mainsail leech caused during a reefing maneuver.▶ 6:46 The crew plans to repair the sail with tape and stitching once conditions allow.▶ 7:26 Despite the progress, the boat remains parallel to the U.S. East Coast, highlighting the scale of the journey.▶ 10:33
