Route Planning

 So, I am not planning on going to the Azores, I might end up there though.

I am planning on attempting the Jester Challenge. The start date is 8th May from Plymouth and to make the start I'll need to leave HNYC around 24th April. If I make the start then my plans are to take the southern route thereby avoiding the fog and ice to the east of New Foundland and keep south of the Gulf Stream. The direct great circle route is around 2,800nm but my chosen route will be more like 3,300nm. It will be very weather dependent but my first way point will be 40N, 40W.
