14th Dec update via his daughter wasn't good: Just received a phonecall from what sounded like a Chinese cargo ship... Dad was talking to them over VHF, so I could hear what he was saying. He said that everything on the boat is broken: sails, autopilot, self-steering... he also gave his coordinates: 36°00N, 60°25W. He only has about three or four days left until Bermuda... let's hope he makes it!
@marcoski711 then he was found - and refused rescue, in typical Sergei determination, staying on to make it to Bermuda! See blog under page /494398.html
