Arrived back in Liverpool this morning.<BR/>Pleased to see you've set out as you predicted when checking the forecast.<BR/>I will check your progress with interest and trust you have a successful voyage.<BR/>I took some pix of Liv in the marina before sailing off and will email for general distribution if you see fit.<BR/>Hope you sort the technical glitches with collision avoidance and steering systems soon so you can get a good sleep. Intrigued by sea anchor - excellent. Don't think I'll need one on my narrowboat though!<BR/>Best regards.<BR/>Paul HBurbobozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02425185813079093695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-59322128848247418322009-01-05T01:48:00.000+00:002009-01-05T01:48:00.000+00:00Bears magic water?BAZBears magic water?<BR/>BAZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-82222057461306497592009-01-04T19:41:00.000+00:002009-01-04T19:41:00.000+00:00Paul I am the field hockey coach at Colgate and ha...Paul I am the field hockey coach at Colgate and have had great fun watching your progress to date! Everyone here thinks that this is a great adventure and we are all having fun reading about your progress. My brother died of cancer about a year ago so I know how much rowing in your moms memory must mean to you and your family. Just wanted you to know that the field hockey team will be thinking of you on your great adventure and wishing you the best.<BR/><BR/>Coach FotoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7687581172447454797.post-55382201682398227072009-01-04T03:12:00.000+00:002009-01-04T03:12:00.000+00:00Paul,The Binghamton Patriots Baseball Program is v...Paul,<BR/><BR/>The Binghamton Patriots Baseball Program is very proud of you!!!

So glad to hear you are off! Good work...hello Paul! So glad to hear you are off! Good work! I am at the other end of your journey now on a boat near Antigua. But my boat holds 3000 people and goes by the name of Princess Cruises. It's a bit rough here and I am surprised at how much a ship this gigantic size can roll in the swells. Nothing compared to what you are going through though! I remember taking WiTHiN (the pedal powered kayak) into 20 ft waves near Tofino, BC. I was never that sick in my life! Anyhow - best of luck to you and I want you to know that you are an inspiration.
