+7 Sailing Trip

An adventure can not be an adventure if you know what is going to happen along the way. Today's adventure involves no wind. Position virtually unchanged from yesterday. A little "no wind" vortex. There are more lined up. They are in a "no wind vortex" corridor. Position report is SF5 5/13/07 594 mi 135 mi 96:00:00 256° true N34 16.590 W132 02.711 SF6 5/14/07 658 mi 63.7 mi 120:00:00 254° true N34 01.396 W133 06.903 SF7 5/15/07 704 mi 46.3 mi 144:00:00 265° mag N34 08.251 W133 54.650 They seem to be doing pretty well.

Got two phone calls. One from Brian as Graham was learning how to sail the boat when the wind was actually blowing and one from Graham when Brian, the delicate one, was in the weather and it was too cold for Graham to go outside to get a reading on Lat and Long. It was close to the golden gate bridge so... close enough. The plan is to sail north-west a little to clear the land mass and get some true wind then head south for two days or so. After that they can turn left or right. They both said the boat is good and working well. The new life raft is very good and they are provisioned up. Should be a right hand turn. Next update will be Thursday at 6:00 pm by satelite phone. Text message only. We have to provide weather lookout. Good luck on that. It looks good from here. Not cold at
