Thanks for reading it. He really was special–amazingly smart and talented. Everyone loved him. I’m glad to have known him, even if it was only for a little while.

It is amazing the impact some people can have on our lives, even when they are there for just a brief moment. Cruising definitely deepens those moments. I am sorry to hear this ‘goofy, fin lovibg kid’ is no longer with us. He sounds like a very special kid.

Thanks! Glad you think so. I haven’t really shared my writing with anyone, so I thought I would try to change that. More coming soon. Also, looking forward to seeing you guys whenever we get back to NC.

We were on our boat Tara and you were on Udder Delight – according to my book you had just burned a hole in your deck that day! We had great conversations about being young cruisers and spent several happy hours together. Thought I would try and find you on line and it’s great to see this website – looks like you went on to continue some amazing adventures! Robin and I are now in Victoria BC with our 13 year old son – doing a bit of cruising in the Gulf Islands on our Newport 28.

All the best, Cheryl and Robin

drone surveys: http://benavides.web.unc.edu/2015/10/29/drone-surveys/ you will know this area, it is near where you took sailboat lessons at the NC Maritime Museum (which by the way, they are in the process of buildilng a large bridge over your old sailing spot there!)

And if you want to see about researching sharks – east coast, the place to be is Mote Marine lab in Sarasota FL
There is an old coot/professor at UNC Chapel Hill’s Institute of Marine Science that has studied sharks for years – Dr. Schwartz, but everyone says he is crazy (and nearing retirement age) but he has a book out.

If you want me to make more suggestions of shark stuff let me know!

Voilerie Aveia is a little far for some people to reach, but you’re right, they have an excellent reputation and do a wonderful job! We’re very happy to have found them.

Wow Duane! When you said you’ve been catching up on the blog, I had no idea it was from so far back! No wonder you haven’t gotten any sleep! I will have to do my best to get writing again (and there’s a lot more to go!), and thank you so much for the complement. Hope we get to see you (& meet your family)when we’re back on the east coast in 2017! Jenny & crew 🙂
