Things are looking good from the forecast at least for westerly winds.
NWS is down but weatherunderground carries their marine forecast info:

Tonight
West winds 20 knots. Seas 3 to 5 feet near shore and up to 6 to 8 feet well offshore. Bay and inland waters choppy in exposed areas.

Looking light and out of the SW in Naples as it seemed yesterday. The frontal boundary is just moving over Naples now. Hope the wind fills in from good directions for the race.

Have fun guys!
