Having a great time

Wednesday morning 10 am, I just spoke to Scott and they are having a ball. They are experiencing storm conditions since 8pm last evening. As of this morning there high seas and strong winds, but they are really having a good time. There are some electrical issues, but nothing serious.

Checking on SPOT this morning, I see that in deed they are under way again. Scotty estimated at least 2 days to get home. He figures he has 38 gallons of fuel so should be OK in that department. Time will tell.

More later.
