NO Friday the 13th departure!!!!!

WE LEAVE TODAY!!!!! Thursday.

Seeing as it's bad luck to leave on a voyage on a Friday (sailor superstition) AND this Friday is the 13th, luck would have it that our weather fax radio showed up TODAY, so we can leave ASAP.

The SPOT works till approx 200 to 300 miles offshore, so there will be about 10 days where Lindsay will have to be updating our position via google earth through our sat phone text messages.

No bad weather to be expected off this part of California too, it's all North of us, passed San Fran. Suckers.

Wish us luck...not that we need it, we have Rich.

Lee Jefferson out

p.s. we have an american cell phone now, which should work for most of this afternoon and evening, as well as the whole time we are in Hawaii. Cell number is 1-808-214-0837. No long distance roaming for us, this is the USA, and their cell phone plans KILL ours.
