Last night was like running an obstical course in the dark trying to maneuver around rocks, shoreline, islands, and fishing boats. We made it with only one disoriented part.

Thank God we will not be having any more of that for the rest of the sail! 180 more nautical miles to go!

    Ok guys, this is the final lap. One more day to go and you’ll be dry and warm again. Sheila has told me that she will be preparing all of your special meal requests that you were asking….so be patient and pray for good winds and calm seas.
    Good luck and I’m looking forward to seeing all of your photo’s that were taken during this journey. Let us know if you’re going to put them in a web page.
    Best wishes,
    DJ

    Hello Lee & Jose:

Have you two seen how many hits your blog has taken….alot of people care about the two of you. Prayers are for a safe arrival. Jose & Sheila blessings on your new home…may it always be filled with love and laughter. Lee don’t even think of staying you get your butt home where it belongs. We are all anxious to hear more in detail about the trip….perhaps we will be able to read the book that you should write. Love, Dennis & Chris

    Caroline is a great friend of mine and has been for some 27 years! Funny, when we were 11, I never thought I’d have a friend for 27 years. She has followed your journey through our chats on the phone. Lee – she is very interested in your travels by boat across the world…
