It looks like they left at 7:22, the old record is 8 hours 36 minutes. Gives them until 3:58 by my best estimate if the leave time is correct.

Hey Donna, next time just run alongside in the BT Condo!

I show them 99 miles out, not exactly sure about finish line, see below

Thanks, if so they are ahead of the record by roughly an hour.

I'm kinda guessing 1:15 CST. That would be about 6+ hours. i think that's what Bob was aiming for. This is tooooo cool!! Hope ther is video to purchase.

I belong to Terry Sobo!!! Man will I be glad when they get there. Hey Tom, I just talked to Cindy at Nor-Tech and if you talk to any of them, there is a repoprter from the St. Pete Times that wants to be there when they get back to Key West and would like to know when they plan on leaving tomorrow

ScottB 06-11-2008 12:58 PM

Great job, this is awesome following the boat:drink:

6 hours of waves, sky, and sun? Maybe a Cuban patrol boat chase thrown in for excitement?:evilb:

They are leaving to come back tomorrow? By boat again? He could probably auction off a seat for the return now that it's known he can do it.
