In 1979 I crewed for a friend as we moved his boat from Camp Pendleton Harbor to the marina at Pearl Harbor. After that trip, we didn't speak to each other for maybe three months!

We were both blaming the other and ourselves for the petty things that happen on the open ocean.

We finally put it all behind us, and then I crewed for him doing the reverse in '85.

I don't know what was different the second time, but we had a blast. Older, wiser, who knows?

As you already know = You are going to love the TransPacific!

Good Luck!
