I recently made contact with W6FOG on Grid CM95 on VO-52. It was a low pass for me, 11 degrees, so we didn't QSO much. He said he would try on the next AO-51 pass.
He must be busy, I heard him QSOing with someone on 20 meters this afternoon.

Hi Tim!
W6FOG was on SO-50 around 0035 UTC this evening. He is in the harbor at San Luis Obispo CA (grid CM95), has been there since Friday, and said he needed to make repairs so he can use his 100-watt radio (he mentioned it was getting its electrical ground through the coax cable). He mentioned seas had been rough, and there were two storms coming his way. He did not mention when he would leave San Luis Obispo.
73!

Talking with him the past few days, he's stuck in The Port of Avila, near San Luis Obispo, CA due to weather and heavy seas. Hasnt made much progress in his adventure. Has no idea when he'll start out again.
