Adam called at 8:39 am and said he’s doing well and they are moving along just fine! Whew! He missed last night’s 9 pm check-in with the SHTP race committee and there was a just a hint of worry here. He sounded happy and busy. It’s reportedly still blowing 25-30 knots out there. Adam was able to make the 9 am check-in this moring, so his SSB radio is working just fine. I plan on hearing from him tomorrow sometime. SIDE NOTE: Received word that S/V Mirage and skipper Ben Mewes had to turn back around 9 pm last night. He was about 60 miles out and had actually caught up to S/V Bandicoot, who was one of the first to fly out the Gate yesterday. Sorry, Ben!! Mirage and Ben made it back around 7 am this morning and they are docked at Schoonmaker Marina in Sausalito working on electrical issues. Their plan is to restart tomorrow morning and catch the late morning ebb.
