OldAndBold and crew decided to sail home after they passed CP1.
I don’t know why SeaBraMussel dropped out. I was watching him sail off the boat ramp at Ft. DeSoto the other day and he looked good.
Lots of tough Challengers hanging in out there in not the greatest of conditions. Sixteen dropped out today for various reasons. Happy to say all are safe. These events are not called Challenges for nothin’.
Spent a good amount of time on the phone today with Challengers and shore contacts. Looking forward to a bit of sleep and seeing what tomorrow brings. Chief is at CP2 for a few nights with his family. He will hang out and be available to help CP Captains, Tyro and PaddleCarver. RidgeRunner is holding down the fort in Flamingo. Santiago will join him tomorrow and then DolphinGal and Calypso will be there Thursday until Saturday morning. Thanks to Sunseeker who competently handled CP1. Lots went on there with the Plan B peeps showing up to launch. Thanks again to Cape Haze Marina for their hospitality and support of WaterTribe! Chief will be in Key Largo on Tuesday. I’ll go shopping then.

Hello?? The last update was 18 hours ago? The results page shows four have dropped out--Paula mentions 16. It also shows nobody has finished. Is that right? Is it that hard to enter data on the results page?
I've been away, must have missed the word for all to switch to FaceBook, which I guess is what has happened.

Jarhead. My daily updates are on FB, but here is the one from this morning...
Monday March 9th 6:46 AM Mapper Update.
This data is up to several hours old. It just takes some time.
Please note some dates are from Mar 3d, Mar 7th, Mar 8th.
The positions are noted in order from the Mapper positions from the finish at Key Largo back to CP1 at Cape Haze Marina
So no mention is made if the particpant dropped out because the position is still showing on the mapper, and this data reflects that Mapper position.

No other WaterTribers will be reported
Please note some dates are from Mar 3d, Mar 7th, Mar 8th.
The positions are noted in order from the Mapper positions from the finish at Key Largo back to CP1 at Cape Haze Marina
Some icons may be hidden by others and you may see people pop in and out of this list for that reason.
Data and position are not accurate for a real-time relative position, nor are all participants known to be tracking properly.

Thanks, Scareman. Many still heading south, and we are looking forward to seeing them at the finish. Good number of Challengers hanging at The Pelican and filling up MrsMacs!
Chaos and SewSew screamed in here just shy of 28 hours on Sunday. Second boat in last night were brothers, Calvin and Hobbs.
Thirty three Challengers have dropped out as of this time. Majority will register as DNF on the results page when the “official” 10am CP2 deadline passes tomorrow. I don’t have news yet this morning about a deadline extension for CP2. Will post when I speak to Chief. Sanibel/Pine Island proved brutal with wind wise this year.
The tracking map server is down. Chief contacted the company that manages it very soon after the tracker stopped updating and the company is working at getting the server operational again. Until then, RaceOwl is the option. Link is RaceOwl.com/EC2020.
Looking forward to more boats on the finish beach today!

Coastie and ClamCounter finished yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon. A little sporty this year:) We'll send out our normal EC report soon. Walking and pedal driving "Miss Marie" half of Crocodile Dragoever was quite the workout.....and the punishing, strong wind gusts were indeed a challenge this year.
Now time to party in Key Largo!
