Hi.
There is a great plugin (or addon) for Google Earth that shows ships and buoys within Pachuca's immediate vicinity. These passing ships and stationary buoys provide weather and sea condition information updated constantly (in realtime).
What this means is by knowing where Pachuca is, I can provide sea conditions to this Blog or Bob as long as Pachuca passes near a ship or buoy.
Please click on this picture to show the current range of ships and buoys. Pachuca is the purple boat icon.
I hope to use this facility as much as possible. Here is the weather from the nearest buoy to Pachuca.
This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.

All the buoys near California also warn of tsumamis. That would be a really large wave for Robert to navigate!
no, tsunamis at sea are not a big wave. they can barely be noticed
