R & R.... sorta

Well, I'm super excited! I found out that the RYC foundation gave me the grant! Everything is falling into place. My trip is a go! now i just need to get some change so that i dont have to live off of vegemite... yuck.

i spent last weekend sailing an i14 in long beach. it was nice to get away from the canoe stuff for a couple of days.

more to come

boat is in the container!

Well, the doors of the container are closed! thats it. no backing out now. boat is all preped and ready. gear as well. everything looks good.

im still looking for money and airline miles. tickets to aus is my biggest concern at the moment. but good things have been happening. i find out the 20th from ryc about their grant. i have been getting alot of help recently, but im still not quite there.

new donating info

i have set up a possibilty that if you would like a tax write off, you can donate to my cause through the skiff sailing foundation (non-profit 501c3). if you have anyquestion dont hesitate to email me

the last couple of weeks i have gotten a crash course on campaigning. quite honestly it was kicking my ass. luckily i have gotten help from several people, and i am absolutely grateful. things are looking more and more positive each day.

anywho, i am loading the container next wednesday. crazy how fast time has flown. boat is done. seat is done. this weekend is some sailing and prepping my boat and getting stuff ready for the container. Oi.

i have gotten my pic and article in lectronic latitude. if you would like to check it out here's the link : http://www.latitude38.com/lectronic/lectronicday.lasso?date=2007-11-05&dayid=26#Story5
