July 28, 2010: The Voyage Home Begins
Spellbound set out to sea for her return voyage to San Francisco. Bob and David said good-byes at the dock and left Kaneohe YC at about 1:00pm July 28th. Here is Bob's first message, rec'd July 31st at 2:36 p.m....
We are having a number of challenges:
Seasick
leaking head
battery diminished capacity.
We are moving well though. I will get gribs to see where we are in relation to the high.
Current position:
27 29 X 153 48
Barro is 1023
heading about 15. SF is 49.
Close hauled as we can go. about 6 knots and 4 for VMG.
More later as sea sickness diminishes.
