Having talked to Allan yesterday, they were about 100 miles from Bermuda, enjoying sunny warm weather and a nice wind at the stern. Ryen's Quest is enjoying the trip now that she isn't being beat up by the wind and waves. The guys are eating and feeling much better. Both the Bermuda and Halifax coast guard have been in touch with them to possibly aide in contacting another boat that left Halifax at approximately the same time. Al said he could see and hear the planes flying overhead looking for this solo-sailor. The sattelite phone has sure eased my mind during the last two weeks. Money well spent me thinks!!
Although Allan expects to be in a marina sometime today or tonight, he will get there on Mother Nature's time. Finally, retirement has kicked in, and life is no longer a race!!

Good to hear the conditions of Mother Nature have improved. Know the 30 ft. waves too well.
Give our best to the lad's when you speak to them next.
