: Reg,
: That sounds like one of my favorite quotes -- : "Adventure is a sign of
: incompetence" Vilhjalmur Stefanson, 1879-1962, intrepid arctic
: explorer.
: After I first came across this quote I began to notice that many of the
: "adventures" that you hear about are where folks get into
: trouble because they were somehow unprepared. I like you view of having
: worthy goals and accomplishing them uneventfully. The boat looks great
: (but I'm sure you already knew that). Looking forward to seeing that King
: this weekend in the currents off Pt. Wilson.
: -John D.
Thanks John, I have been using a variation on that quote and did not know the origin. I just did a quick Google search on Stephanson, looks like he could hold his own in the wilderness and not be the cause of an adventure.
See you Saturday.
