Tom...Being a singlehanded sailor myself, this kind of thing, the Jester Challenge, really interests me.

This challenge appears to be similar, although on a much larger scale, to the challenges sponsored by the Great Lakes Singlehanded Society, who also look at these kinds of endeavors as personal challenges and not a competition between sailors.

Although I like company when sailing, I get even more joy when its just me, the boat, the wind, and the water. Something about the solitude and selfsuficiency really does it for me.

Thanks for posting...it is very interesting.
