   Heard from Teak this morning. had to stop on the beach at Egmont Key...fix a sail line. 

   Have not heard anymore from them but appear to be doing very well at this point in time. As soon as I talk to them will post again.

   It's 11:12 pm and they are camping with DonKeyHoTey, Tidetraveller, and Microtom.  It was really rough going today, waves were rolling over the boat making it very difficult to pull out electronics to checkin.  All wanted me to also pass on to Sirtackalot and Stingslikeabee glad that they are safe and will miss them on the race. 

   Good night....

   Thanks for the update wife-of-kokopedal :) We hope Kokopedal and Teak are safe too.  Hearing the conditions that everyone is deailing with and the wind forcast today, I am glad we discovered our problem early and headed back. Sounds like this race is pushing everyone and every boat to it's limits.

   Teak and Kokopedal are on the move...conditions are horrible.  7 ft swells going to attempt to make it to 1st checkpoint. Sails are in  and they are pedallling.  Wifes have been advised to bring the trailer they may have to pull out. 

    

   Pedalling right now at 3.27 knots..

    Teak and Kokopedal are in Lemon Bay, mast is back up with jib.  ICW  is a bit calmer and should be at checkpoint one in about two+ hours...then decision time!  Great going guys!
