It has taken a long time. We are exactly 2,140 NM, (2461 statute miles, or 3938 km) straight west of GP, and making good time for our goal. Days getting longer fast. We have gained 40-minutes in the last 24-hours. Fog, with visibility less than a mile, most of the time now. We are hoping for clear skies at Bering Strait. -- Ben Gray Idlewild Custom Buehler 55 powered by a 55-hp Kubota Home port: Dunvegan, Alberta http://www.idlewildexpedition.ca http://dieselducks.com/Idelwild.html http://www.trawlersandtrawlering.com To follow Idlewild with Google Earth: http://tinyurl.com/ksnhg For the Trawler M/V JPEG version: http://tinyurl.com/ovdt7
