R2AK Start is June 14

The Race to Alaska is next week. This is my favorite race due to the inginuity that is used to travel the 750 miles from Victoria, Canada to Ketchikan, Alsaka. Some travel by sailboat and some use other craft including but not limited to canoes, paddle boards, row boats, and more. The winner gets $10,000 and second place is a set of steak knives. The race is known for its sometimes rigorous conditions and the spirit of adventure it inspires. There are no motors allowed! A few years ago they made a full length movie about the race that can be seen only on the Youtube channel itself. Please go there for an amazing look at a very unique race thru some very impressive natural beauty.

Nightmare on the Open Ocean

We had a great time in eastern Europe over the last few weeks. Montenegro was the highlight. Think lake Tahoe but 1/3 the size. The Bay of Kotor is magical. Back on the bay for a week or so and we depart for Kauai shortly. My son and his wife are joining. I love Kauai! Check out this life or death situation from a few years ago.

A slice of heaven!

This is truly paradise. Palau is very remote and hard to get to. This family did it. Enjoy.
