My plans were to
head for the
Philippines fairly soon but the housing market is keeping the market so low I don’t really want to sell and I don’t want to keep the house either.
And now, it seems, I have to sail South by the summer of 2013 or stay here. Or else I may get caught up in a debris field. If at night it could damage the
boat. So I would have to lay a
hull at nights until I’m sure I’m clear of the field. If it's really bad I may have to truck the
boat to SF or even LA.
No one knows for sure how bad it’s going to be but I’m trying to look at the worse case scenario. And I’m sure I’m not the only one concerned.
This video is a close guesstimate and for now that’s all one can rely on to make any plans. And I can imagine how it’s going to affect local
shipping industry.
And if one is trying to get here from the South or
Hawaii it'll be even worse. One estimate says the stuff will be swirling around N. of
Hawaii for years.
