    I already responded to BRyan .. these winds were 200 miles north of the center of the storm.
      I don't understand .. are you unconvinced that the Coast guard report of the wind speed is inaccurate ?
      Do you think that Free Spirit was sunk by a great white whale circling around her and sucking her into the deep ? :):):)
      Do you think this is all a hoax ?
       
      The point is .. how did these people end up there. What did they do wrong ?
      Is anybody interested in that ?
       
      Perhaps if the skipper of Free Spirit, Jacek Bielecki, was in this mailing list he he and Jack and Molly and the other guy woul dbe alive today.
       
      Or perhaps they would be convinced that the 100 mph winds were bogus and head out :):)

    Is one independent story I found in Halifax, which was 200 nm north. If they
    had 78 km/h, it is not surprizing that if would be gusting to 108 (that is
    the max observed in the news report about Free Spirit)

    78km/h is only 42 knots considerably less that half of this 100 knots figure
    that you first posted in fact only 42% :-)

    and since no one knows anything about Free Spirit other than we dont know
    what happened to it yet - how did these 'OBSERVATIONS' from Free Spirt come to
    hand?

    Still very very unconvinced
