Here is the recent update from Dave Nottage
TB IS 421 NM FROM SFO
JUST TOOK DOWN THE MAIN AND SAILING WITH REDUCED ROLLED UP JIB
WIND IS 30 TO 34 NMPH FROM THE NORTH
GRIB MAPS SUGGEST A WINDY FINISH TO THE TRIP
POSS 38 DEG 05' N 131-16' W
SPEED 7 K
CURRENTLY HAND STEERING AS THEY ARE A BIT LOW ON BATTERY DUE TO EXSESIVE HEEL WITH THE MAIN UP AND WATER INTAKE OCCASIONALLY SUCKING AIR. WITH MAIN DOWN AND LESS HEEL TIM HOPES TO CHARGE BATTERY AND USE THE PILOT FOR STEERING.
ALL IS WELL BUT THEY SEEM READY TO SEE THE GATE.
