Very interesting story of an outstanding sailor.
My only comment on CW was simply the surprise of seeing my sailing "back yard" featured in it.
I almost feel as if I know the local seals (or sea lions) by name... they often pop up right next to the boat when I am out there applying varnish. It's funny to get them to turn their heads by making their loud "whoosh" sound... they stare at me for a minute or so... and then glide away. Some of these pinnipeds are down right huge.
