Yea, looks like they are hauling ass in, if they aborted then they have plenty of fuel why dog it back in, pull up and run it in.

I think they'll make land in OC Maryland, win direction and stream at their back, makes sense to me?

It appears they were stopped for about 20 minutes (9:03 to 9:23 ET) and now back underway again. Keep rollin', guys!

just in case we see them stop or slow 0-50 -80? miles from shore. Is anyone in the direction they are comming back in at that has a reliable boat that would be willing to head out toward the direction they are comming in at and check on them and follow them back in to make sure they dont have a fuel (amount) problem or something? im sure we can come up with some money for fuel.
