Across the Atlantic

and the length of the Northwest Passage

That's about it, I don't think anyone has crossed the Pacific. :-O

I haven't read the northwest passage one yet, but that first one was wild. Those guys are some tough sailors.

Wow, the Atlantic story is crazy, goes to show an 18ft boat probably isn't the best choice for ocean sailing. Although, this is a testament to the strength and durability of the Hobie 18.

Yeah for the Hobie 18 πŸ˜€
