Across the Atlantic

and the length of the Northwest Passage

That's about it, I don't think anyone has crossed the Pacific.

I haven't read the northwest passage one yet, but that first one was wild. Those guys are some tough sailors. -

Wow, the Atlantic story is crazy, goes to show an 18ft boat probably isn't the best choice for ocean sailing. Although, this is a testament to the strength and durability of the Hobie 18.
Yeah for the Hobie 18
