John of "Seahorse" said: "I have long felt that circumnavigation, per se, is too often motivated by dreams of grandeur and potential bragging rights; the wrong reasons to do it." I agree, although that goal, regardless of the reason, is often the impetus to get people going. Once on the journey some, like Dolores and me, stop to smell the roses or find a location we enjoy so much the goal to circumnavigate becomes secondary -- but not forgotten. Personally I admire sailors have circumnavigated or sailed way off the beaten path to remote locations. I enjoy being around people who go to sea for the sheer adventure. Robby "Dolores E."
