200 Miles Away... But Who's Counting?

They are! I had my last phone call from them yesterday before their sat plan expired. After 39 days at sea Bruce and Tiff are more than ready to arrive in Hilo. They are only about 200 miles away at N19º and W152º,30'. They were cruising along quite swiftly until Sunday when the wind died down to 3kts. The past two days they have been bobbing around feeling a bit frustrated especially because they are so close. Bruce is hesitant to motor because his fuel supply is running low. However, this afternoon it should pick up to 9kts. which will hopefully have them arriving on Thursday. So, if there are any Vixenistas near Hilo, look out for them in the harbor later this week. I know they would appreciate not only a welcoming party, but also, anyone willing to celebrate their full circumnavigation! Woo-hoo!
