Hello All,

It seems our hosting service for the blog made some server-side changes that messed up our ability to post remotely for the last couple of weeks. Its taken several days of convincing the tech monkeys to fix the problem rather than just tell me "it doesn't work". While it seems beyond their ability to resolve the issue back to where we were, I've come up with a workable solution and hope to get Paul's ability to post back soon.

So ... stand by and keep an eye on the blog as we get closer to the Pac Cup there will be a lot of new postings.

And of course we're excited to have you watch our progress while we're underway as we cross the Pacific Ocean. Everything is set up to allow us to post via satellite phone during the race. We'll be testing it late april or early may to make sure its all working.

You'll be able to follow along to get sense of what crosses our minds as we face the challenge of double-handed sailing a race to Hawaii from San Francisco on a 30' sailboat!

Cheers!
