2015, Sailing Antigua to Horta

I flew to Antigua and boarded the Northern Child, a Swan 51 sailboat.  Eight of us sailed from there to Horta in the Azores.  I had to leave to get to a job in Los Angeles, but the other guys sailed on to the UK.

Northern Child is a racing boat that is sailed back and forth from Europe to the Caribbean yearly to match the seasons.  We were delivering the boat back to Europe in May.

The sail is upwind when going to the Azores, so we took quite a beating, but the weather was generally good.  On the second leg to the UK, the guys were hit by a pretty bad storm.
