Dear Martin,

Just saw your blog.It all is so exciting, yes Columbus is proud of you all. I wish I could come to NY to greet you. Is there a way of getting in touch with you?

For now, warmest wishes for a safe landing at

Lieber Martin

Welch freudige Überraschung von dir einen Brief aus Daytona Beach zu erhalten! Herzlichen Dank. In Gedanken begleite ich dich und deine Crew, sende viele zusätzliche Sonnenstrahlen aus Basel, damit die Energie sicher bis zur baldigen Ankunft in New York reichen wird. Viel Glück!

Ich freue mich auf ein baldiges Wiedersehen.

Liebe Grüsse



Annekäthy mit Familie

Georges Tremblay:

As I wrote you before, it's better being in the intracoastal waterway than on the ocean by these days. Have a nice time in Norfolk.

And, most important of all, congratulation for the exceptional performance of your ship. You are writing history.

Lorn:

If you get this in time, consider visiting Beaufort, North Carolina on the Intracoastal Waterway. There are several marinas. There are several shops and restaurants right on the historic waterfront, as well as the Maritime Museum and wooden boat museum across from it. This is a good place to stock up on supplies, since other than the village of Oriental, the canal traverses remote locations north of Beaufort, and shops may be limited until you get closer to Virginia.

Hope the weather cooperates for you!
