I dunno - we were being lauded as heroes. Some guys even came up and called
us 'great sailors.' Maybe Jason and John W, but I know I pissed and
moaned the whole way. I tried to quit every day and finally had to quit
trying to quit.
The main point of the stunt was to prove the design of the Puddle Duck
Racer. I think we did that, at the very least. With all that happened
and all the troubles we had, I never once doubted the boats.
Jason and John W, I feel like I gained new family through this. John,
you coming back for us when we could make the turn to Army Hole is probably
the most selfless act I have ever witnessed. Jason, if it weren't for
your brains, skills, and abilities, I'd have washed up on the lee shore
and been eaten by Ghost Crabs. I thank you both.
