My copy of World Cruising Guide is in Hawaii, I am in Oz visiting my daughter. I asked earlier if Jan was a good month to cross from Los Angeles to Hawaii. Well, things have changed and I need to stay here for another month. What about Feb. or Mar. for the same route.

There are a good old Australian saying…no worries! February and March are just as good as January. The winds may be strong at times but they should be from the right direction (most likely NE) so you should have a fast and exhilarating sail.
