No signs of either, Sam D or Boris, on AIS. So, either both still well offshore, or transmitters down.

If ‘nosing in’ to ‘see how bad it is,’ their real issue is that they would be committed, by the time they get to the Continental Shelf. Which could be a surf zone……
With the next system advancing, toward them, I don’t envy them their choices.

Local vlogger Aida, gives an idea of conditions, off Les Sables’ breakwater.
EDIT: Race Control now (13,30 UTC 28.1.25) giving Wednesday 29.1.25 afternoon ETA's for both Sam D & Boris.
