Hasn't it been relatively calm since he left?
Anybody know what kind of outboard he's running?

Don't know about the outboard, but someone that road with him "and returned to San Felipe" said there was always about 2-3 in. of water on deck and
all supples etc are piled on deck.

Still in Puertecitos Miercoles p.m.
I got an e-mail from Bob in Puertecitos last night stating that the Neutrino was still there.
The seas have been mostly calm since his departure from Percebu. Great weather except for a cloudy a.m. ayer.

He has been fortunate.....
.....with the succession of relatively mild Pacific storms that we just had and should get through next Tuesday, I figured there wouldn't have been
much wind.
All it will take is a high pressure building behind one of these fronts. It will eventually happen. Maybe Wednesday.
I hope he's not between Gonzaga and Remedios when it does.......

Looks like a houseboat. Spent a night or two on 'em. Not something I'd want to venture out in open water with. When a storm brews up the wreckage will
give 'em something to hang on to.

He may be on to something.......
Thor Hyerdahl's vovage in the Kon Tike was not all that pleasant either.
Keep a watch on him!
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Houseboat.
This time of year the weather could be easy on a 'em. A summer squall might mess 'em up, otherwise who knows?

Slooowly Heading South
I just talked to a neighbor here in Percebu this afternoon who said he was awakened from his afternoon nap ayer to a car getting stuck in the soft
sand outside. He walked out to find Three-Tooth Papa Neutrino Stuck ! He asked where he'd come from and he said his Yacht was still in Puertecitos.
I guess that answers the questions regarding his progress.

I wish I was heading down there to Baja. I'd donate some styrofoam and plastic food barrels that I found on the Sacramento Delta. I doubt he would
accept any new materials.

I think I read on Kira's site
That he is seriously considering abandoning the voyage after, what, about 30 miles?
Maybe the guy is smarter than we think.

Damn, that guy has managed.......
......waterfront digs with no real investment. Well, it's waterfront when the tide is favorable. Otherwise it's on the water.
It should really start to swelter there by the end of the month.
I take it he's not actually living on that?
