Mirhtmaker update

16 August 2017

I've been talking to the boat on text. they are under 400 miles from San Francisco. All is well aboard. They have been sailing at almost a 90 degree heading for the past two days, making good tracks and heading straight for San Francisco. the wind has been consistently 15+ with gusts into the mid 20's. They have two reefs in the main and a small jib up. The B&G instruments have been a challenge. they have quit altogether Monday night but are back now. even when they quit they were still able to get Speed Over the Ground and Course Over the Ground so it has not posed a problem for navigation. There are so many redundancies onboard. at last count I believe there were 12-15 GPS devices onboard. These include main and back up GPS units, Ipad, cell phones, back up handheld GPS, ships computers, Iridium Satellite phone etc. Last night was fast and smooth, the night before was wet and wild! It's getting cold and has been overcast for the past few days. They have switched their watches to west coast time. Looking like a mid day Friday arrival.
