  1. 40nm from Maui, 100nm+ from Honolulu. Contrary to forecasts, barely sailable wind. Happy 4th of July! Pos http://s2t.me/bigocn
  2. Enjoying the (very) slow but calm and peaceful sailing - 230nm to Honolulu - I guess I'll miss 4th of July... Position http://s2t.me/bigocn
  3. Absolutely and utterly becalmed. The Pacific has glassed over. 3 days from Hawaii.... Argh! Position http://s2t.me/bigocn
  4. Crossed Tropic of Cancer for 3rd time. Definition of torture, tradewinds die 4 days away from Hawaii... Position http://s2t.me/bigocn
  5. New blogpost: Pacific v. Atlantic http://tinyurl.com/phtdv3
  6. 624nm from Hawaii, six more days of sailing maybe? position http://s2t.me/bigocn

  9. Finally, the Pacific Tradewinds! position http://s2t.me/bigocn

  11. Beginning to warm up, saw my first flying fish in the Pacific this morning, must be nearing the trades... Position http://s2t.me/bigocn
  12. Annoying and wet wind chop over ocean swell... Now going fast directly for Hawaii position http://s2t.me/bigocn

  17. This tweet is powered by solar - Sitting at Half Moon Bay anchorage enjoying the sunset. A fisherman just gave me a fresh crab for dinner...
  18. Assisted the the strangely un-famous Jerry Borucki, who is sailing (and not for the 1st time) as far north as he can get - To walk the pole.
  19. Visited the Plastiki expedition today, and am helping an arctic sailor with his furler in the morning... Keeping a keen eye on the weather.
  20. Light winds, & a cut-off low hovering around - Waiting until it dissipates. Pacific high still under established; nothing I can do but wait.
