Wow! I don’t give them much of a chance for success. Zebulon Tryon, 21, and Chris Reuter, a man of about 25, departed from Avalon Harbor Friday on a white, 27-foot 1973 Coronado headed for Santa Cruz, CA. I thought I’d see if any SOCAL members recognize this pair. I haven’t been tracking the weather but 50 knot plus winds and very heavy seas are the daily norm off Big Sur this time of year. Transiting this area is typically done 5 – 7 miles offshore to avoid the field of see mounts off Big Sur a dry sea mount. Add the afternoon winds at Hurricane Pt. and the ill informed don’t stand much of a chance. Phil Agur s/v Wing Tip C270 LE #184 MMSI 366901790
