Original Post:
Please be on the lookout for SV ODYLE, a Class C Tall Ship, hailing port San Francisco, with Abraham, wife Susan, two children, Saoirse and Ciam on board. It is believed Susan may have returned to the US temporarily and SV ODYLE may have one female Italian crew. They were also having problems with their engine.
Cruisers in Tahiti and the Marshall Islands have become concerned that SV ODYLE is overdue or missing.
The last blog post on Following Sea was October 18, 2019 from Suwarrow in the Cook Islands. This was their intended route from there:
“We are making our way to the Marshall Islands for cyclone season and this is our fist port of call in the Cook Islands. After this will be American Samoa for provisioning and on to Funafuti in Ellis islands then Tarawa, the capital of the Republic of Kiribati and then finally the Majuro in Marshall Islands.”
