1152 days at sea

Intrepid record breaking sailor Reid Stowe returned to Terra Firma on June 18th, after being at sea continuously for 1,152 days. Initially, he was joined by a female companion, but she needed to return to land within a year or so. Three years after setting forth from New York, Reid berthed the schooner Anne there once more. The dedicated website contains dozens of links to the news on this story. I have enjoyed following Reid on his at times slow progress across the oceans of the world, and wish him well for the future.
