However, I think we stole Mr. Toad's wild ride. It is squally, rainy, windy, and the seas are confused. But this horse is burning back to the barn. We are tired of being beaten up by the weather and cranky spinnakers, and tired of being wet. Water is now dripping through the companionway hatch onto our bunk. We are in sit or crawl mode. Helming is more important than it's ever been. We are on a mission.
We look forward to those mai tais at Kaneohe yacht Club, hugging our family and friends that will greet us there, a much needed shower, and to sleeping in a bed that is dry and not constantly moving. I, in particular, am looking forward to NOT seeing Willem Dafoe (in Klaus Zissou attire) and Hunter S. Thompson in my dreams.
Fasten your seatbelts, it's going to be a bumpy night.
Team War Pony
(for the record, I currently hold the speed record of 15.40 knots (with the new A2))
