3 weeks, 450 miles single handed, way offshore, is behind me. Photos soon. It was a great trip and nothing broke. However the sea did teach some lessons.

Yesterday was a 15 hour, 75 mile downwind run from Catalina's 2 Harbors all the way home.

Man, I am glad to be here.

Nice job Jim. Looking forward to your trip narrative and photos. I did a 135 miler several weeks ago with overnight sailing. Your insights will be helpful as I intend going farther and farther afield.

Jim,

I am anxious to hear what the sea taught you and look forward to learning from it as I sail the same ocean you do.
