Bill, some of you young whipper snappers (where the hell did THAT come
from???) may feel that 65 is old and decrepit. I will be turning 58 on
Thursday and Hans will be 60 in December. When we are 65 we will have a year
or two of full time cruising under our belts and we'll JUST BE COMING INTO
OUR OWN!!!
David's age isn't the issue here, it's the feat of doing a single handed 17
day upwind leg from Fiji to Hawaii -- you need to get your priorities right
Bill. :-D
(And congratulations and adulations to David!)
