With Silbo closing in on the center of the next main eddy, the team has started looking further in to whether to go north to Iceland/Ireland/Europe or South to the Canaries.
The general consensus is that we want to continue to the north towards the United Kingdom and so as the glider approaches the eddy, we will hold the current way point until passing to the other side of the core where we will then move the way point to 41˚42N 50˚00W and potentially switch on the thruster to make sure we exit to the north eastern sector of the eddy.
