WILD THING reports getting knocked down by a massive squall last
night, which shredded Ray's last spinnaker and ripped the boom vang
padeye off the deck. This makes 3 (enormous) spinnakers which have gone
to handkerchief heaven for him on this trip. Ray also reports that the
problem he has been having where his lower chainplate compression post
has been allowing the tang bolt to cut slowly down the length of the
carbon fiber mast has gotten worse. At morning check-in, although it was dark
and hard to assess, Ray thought that there was a transverse kink in the
mast at the D1 attatchment point. He and Bruce on Rumbleseat had
a prolonged discussion on methods of tuning the rig to keep it stable. Ray is
close to the finish line now and will probably finish in the next 24 hours.
ED on ORANGE BLOSSOM thought that the problems he had had earlier with a
shredding bulkhead might be returning, because he was hearing strange
noises below decks. It turned out that he was passing a pod of 5 or 6
whales, and had been hearing their commentaries on his spinnaker handling
techniques. Although it was too dark to identify the species, Ed reports that
they were very near the boat and showed up well on radar after he had passed
them.
The competitive spirit is returning, as people start to smell the land.
RUMBLESEAT, WILD THING, and JOE are all likely to finish by noon tomorrow
(July 10). Each of us is trying to flog a little more speed from our tired
boats, and we are now picking Ken Roper's ( HARRIER) brain as to best
approaches to the finish line and how to avoid the reefs around the
entrance to Hanaleii bay.
The weather is overcast and humid. The sea is still rather flat
and there is a small swell. We have not heard from BIG MON or BADBOY
in a long time and wonder if they have been reported by other means.
