We hurried out of Fort Lauderdale to get in front of the storm. That turned out to be the ideal strategy as last night, we barely saw the outer bands of Hurricane Helene. The Leopard 50 has proven to be a worthy sailing machine. We saw 15 to 25 knots although most of the past three days have been 18 to 24 on the beam. It gave us a comfortable, fast ride.
