The CrewThe Crew. 
My friend Chris Schaefer will accompany me for the entire circumnavigation. Here's a picture of Chris monkeying with my new Cape Horn self steering gear.
Mary Beauchamp, in a Seussian mood accompanied us
up to Anacortes. Mary was great help in getting the boat ready to
go. Thanks Mary!
And my brother Matt, getting down in the galley. Matt decided
to use this cruise as an excuse to quit smoking. He spent the
first few days nico-fitting, roller coasting between alertness
and passedoutness down below. Trainspotting.
and finally my disembodied head floating away in a
haze of acetone and fiberglass dust.
