Fifty thousand miles of racing and sailing around the world adventures, such as: "(it) was like floating in air in the absolutely clear water over beautiful coral formations and spectacularly colored reef fish swimming under our boat." "We got a ringside seat view of a new volcano erupting out of the ocean." "We experienced a strange isolation with only exotic birdcalls and occasional twig snapping sounds from crocodiles on shore." "Our guide made sure we were not kidnapped and held for ransom (Aden)." "The Southern Cross on our left, Orion dead ahead and the Big Dipper on our right, truly a magnificent and wondrous sight." These are just a few excerpts, samplings of the many racing and cruising adventures and experiences in thousands of miles of sailing the oceans of the world.
