    Great website. I love sailing, but what you did takes a special amount of character and courage. I'll do one or two overnights, but not two weeks of them, and without company on night watch. It was fun to watch your progress and read your log reports. Thanks for sharing your after-action report with us all.

    Thank you for this Alan, it was a great finish to watching the saga from the comfort of my arm chair. What an adventure.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: To get me out there the boat would have to have a pool bar and a dinning room that seats at least 300. What you did is incredible. Congratulations again!

    Wow! That is very impressive. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. What a great read!
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
