He’s on the move again.
I heard from Richard today. He's planning to depart Morro Bay with the target of arriving at the Golden Gate bridge by 1300 Sunday, then another 3 hrs or so on the flood to Vallejo Muni Marina where his new covered slip awaits.
Maybe we should provide an escort for the last segment up Mare Island Strait. Anyone else interested in escorting? We even have a boat with a canon! How 'bout it, Mark?

Al, that would be very cool! How about starting a thread suggesting that as not everyone on the forum is following this thread?
Wifey B: I knew Mark has a cannon, but who has the canon? I'd be interested in knowing if it's a church rule or a general principle?
Example Canon: One should not be a smart a... and make fun of someone else's spelling.
Sorry, couldn't resist. Maybe it's the Canadian air I'm breathing.
Well, it's been a year in SF and he is on the move again. Left there a week or two ago after a long spell of crappy strong north winds.
Left Vancouver a day or so ago and is making way north.
I have not talked to him about his long term plans, but I think they will be interesting...
Alaska, then what? Russia, Japan??
Go Richard!! Go Dauntless!!
Could his boat go around the world entirely? Or would the stretch from India to Africa to the Middle East not be feasible on a boat of his size?
What an adventurer.
The boat has already crossed the Atlantic twice. It absolutely can go "around the world". And I think that is exactly his goal!
Yep, from SE Asia to Africa seems to a bunch of sketchy areas. Not sure how he plans to handle that. I'd want a full crew and be armed, but that creates even more and new problems.
The odds of being boarded by elite, educated pirates are pretty low.One way to handle it would be to display all of these indicating contagion, bio-hazard and radiation aboard Dauntless. Might at least deter the elite, educated pirates?
