    Hey guys,

    So glad you made it safely. Can’t wait to see pictures. And just in time for the NCAA Final Four 🙂 Wichita State (who!!!!) plays Louisville (who is looking real tough) and Michigan play Syracuse (could be a good ball game). Don’t know if you have sat TV channel that will get it, so will keep you posted.

    Glad you’re there safely….

    My congrats as well. So glad you made it safely – even though things might have been a bit stressful at times. I hope what you remember is the great accomplishment you (all the crew) and MM have achieved. Enjoy the celebration.

    Wow! What a trip! And I’ve just been sitting here in my desk chair reading your exploits. What it must have been to experience it. Thank you all for sharing your adventures with us. Well done!

    Congratulations…. How exciting. I’m living a vicarious life through your blogs. Thanks so much for sharing it with some of us landlubbers.

    I know I already sent our congratulations – but its been 48 hours now and you and Kathy can’t just STOP writing and leave us hanging you know… you have to taper off out of concern for those of us who were addicted to your collective posts. I imagine you have finally made a full exhale and might be actually relaxed now (or as relaxed as you can be in a crowded anchorage in Paradise as your crew has reported) – so c’mon, we are all hungry for another YB installment. So feed us some engineer notes – even if it’s just what the final fuel burn was – like how much you had in reserve? Important facts like how many loads of laundry it took to wash Kathy’s salty wet clean-it-up towels, and oh my goodness, how her foot is now that she might actually be able to rest it. Hmmm, what else? Oh, how many bottles consumed in the last 48 hours? Have you found that fantasy meal ashore? – not that anything ashore has ever been better than what comes out of your galley (and with Rose in there too it must be tres bien). Thanks again for keeping us in the loop, we truly feel like we were with you all the way. Woo Hoo, Well done gang. Congratulations. xoxoxoxo

    Congratulations, you have achieved what most of we boaters only dream about, Julie and I did a transatlantic and the Med. in 2004-6, in our Trawler, and after planning the voyage you just completed for two years. Time caught up with us and we fell short of our goal.
    I would like to follow your voyage as you move along among the islands and continents ahead of you.
