What are they DOING?

Hi all;

Lori and Cathy asked me to post to try to explain why they are going so far south. It's actually pretty smart, but it is a gamble. They are looking at forecast models online (yes, they have access to internet weather info and really good software) that indicates when the wind picks up it will happen in the south first. They are very close to some of the most seasoned racers, especially foamy, Yeti and Suprise!. So don't count them out and no, they're not going to Mexico. :)

The routing I've done gives them an ETA to Hawaii around the 20th or 21st. Don't bother looking at yellow brick's ETAs or rankings for probably another 5-7 days—then it will start to be more accurate.

They're doing fine, they have plenty of water and food, and they're enjoying themselves.
