Elise has less than 100 miles to go, but the forecast is for 5-10 NW switching to S.
Normally, 20 hours * 5 kts = 100 nm might not be a bad basis for a guess for an E27, but in a dying breeze they'll be hard pressed to make that good (probably steering very hot angles just to keep the boat moving and the sails full).
Taz (the single hander) is pretty close, as is the Moore 24 skippered by Andy Hamilton- looking at the positions over the course of today, they may well have seen each other and possibly even sailed in close proximity on the same tack for a while.
Elise's most recent position report hasn't been posted yet, but it look like she may be splitting with the above-mentioned boats and heading north.
