Temerity track as of 8:24AM. They went over 42deg N. Doing really well in the face of very unfavorable wx!

MarineTraffic.com had the black sheep at 38 22N and 124 53W a half-hour ago, heading ESE at 5.7 knots.
 
Nice, only about 100 nm outside the Gate.

Yup! He's predicting a 9ish landing but I thought that seemed a little early. I forgot to ask him if he's motoring yet or when he plans to do so. He said "now don't do anything special". Ah, well all I was planning to do is show up with a cinnamon roll. Geesh, was he thinking I might have a marching band or something? Maybe I should eat the cinnamon roll myself. I'm just hoping the slip sublet has moved on. Off shore sailors are a funny lot, eh?
 
So, early afternoon tomorrow? Grand Marina. Cold beer and Irish Spring.

For Mouton? Grand Marina, no. Marina Village yes. Soap not necessary. Plenty on board including Dove. And def no beer. I was informed today that they still have mucho beer in the fridge and lots of wine in the cellar....well actually the wine cellar is a special little alcove under the table. I just hope he protected the bottles in clean socks!

He said they are shaving and showering before arrival. How civilized.

I don't have a working link for SEAZED.

At 12:16PM PDT Mouton Noir is in the Estuary about 1 nm from Marina Villiage, so if you are reading this they are probably already in their home berth.

Temerity last report was of "sucky weather" , they are sailing more to the south now for some reason.
 
Mouton has returned to the grazing fields. About 100 feet shy of the slip the engine died. Luckily with quick thought and manuvering she was turned down the estuary to bleed and restart the engine and get her in her slip.
A good time was had by all. Kinda.

Temerity now visible on AIS

https://www.vesselfinder.com/vessels/TEMERITY-IMO-0-MMSI-338108542

They report very rough weather passing through Gale Alley, and they hate the ship's computer for some reason. Otherwise doing well.

They should arrive sometime after midnight, at D-dock, Grand Marina, Alameda. I'll be there to let people in, I think some other family may be there.

David, my tracking following suggests they are about 60 miles out and may be 12 to 16 hours out? Your thoughts? Perhaps the trackers I'm following are not current.
Michael and I were planning on being there. And maybe Carliane and Steve Hodges.
 
The Delorme tracker can be out of date by a couple of hours, the AIS tracker is only a few minutes behind.

Last report:

37.95794 N/123.26907 W
Course/Speed:
104.2 ° / 5 kn.

That's at 1909 PDT = 0209 UTC, and they are 7 or 8 nm W of Pt Reyes, I would guess 7 hrs out, so approx 0200 arrival early Tuesday morning. When they pass under the Bay Bridge it will be ~ 1 hr.

Good job on SEAZED getting home engineless, looks like going up to 42N really paid off! Must have been cold up there.
