Roger has just sent me a text message stating that he had about 1 1/2 hours to the end of Vineyard Sound.
From there he has 18 miles to the R2 buoy (Brenton Reef).
There is a high over the area with a slight breeze from the SW. Don't think he'll be moving very fast.
Maybe I'll get some sleep tonight.
Regards,
Norm
