I just watched this, and it's pretty good:

And if you somehow have not read Sailing Alone Around the World, or Voyage of the Liberdade, stop whatever it is you're doing now and start reading. This is important.

Thanks Paul that was a treat to watch. Patrick Watson is a great narrator and makes the narrative somber and poignant through out the piece. The passage around the Horn is amazing as is the trip up the Erie barge canal. I think people who build the replica must come to the realization after sailing the Spray that she is a cow. It must finally dawn on them he was given a derelict oyster smack to reconstruct. Given his druthers and pockets of money he would have found a much more suitable vessel. That being said he does show you if there is a will then by god there is a way. Reason enough to have Joshua as a hero.

I'm in Finland (it was too warm and sunny in Friday Harbor), so 3:30 AM PST = 1:30 PM here.

Well, that's all right then. You can have all of my share of the pickled herring, feel free.
