No keel - I get that. Catamaran's don't usually have one. But why no centerboard? You could easily make one out of plastic, and it would add a LOT to the craft.
It has a small bio diesel engine, for emergencies, but I was looking at it's speed earlier this morning - only 1.4 knots!

Wait until they reach the equatorial doldrums.
Wind in SF Bay is always out of the West, unless the Summer inversion is over Nevada & Colorado.
We should send them the pics from our IOTD Albatross chicks that died after eating plastic pieces. That was very dramatic.
They'll be heading to San Diego, first. They went out quite wide on that leg of the journey. Maybe they're afraid of getting smashed by a large vessel at night, if they stayed in the main shipping lanes. Can you even see their plastic boat on radar? Their info page doesn't say.
Maybe we can sell them a plastic centerboard and a radar reflector dish.
