The Canadian catamaran Basia were five days into the ARC Atlantic crossing when their mainsail was damaged during a large squall. Skipper Michael Neumann explained: “We had to take down the mainsail as the batons had poked several holes through the sail. We continued our crossing using the genoa and also put up a storm sail." Unfortunately for the family boat whose crew for the crossing included his wife Barbara and daughters Cathy and Anna plus fellow crew mate Romauld, there were more problems to come.

At midnight an area of high pressure was centred near 29N 43W 1028, this becoming absorbed into a high near Newfoundland during today and little change is expected over the coming days. A cold front is affecting the north of Olga, this front weakening through today. The trade winds flow is expected to becoming more easterly through Friday. Note that squally showers can be seen on the satellite picture this morning, and we do expect these to move through all areas. Winds will be gusty in any showers.
