Debris reports: VALIS, Spellbound, Medusa spotted several large barnacle-encrusted pilings. Nozomi has had two net-in-prop incidents, one required diving and cutting, the other remedied using a boat hook.
VALIS continues to sail north. Now the forecast is telling us to turn slightly west for a while, before heading for the mainland. I wish these forecasters would make up their minds — how hard can it be??? (a weak attempt at humor.) Still no fish.
Best, Paul / VALIS
