Hello Montgomery sailors..! We got a message from Wilhelm and he made it non-stop to "Rititea" (Gambier Island) on Feb 20th. (He left San Diego the day after Thanksgiving. (November 23rd 2007) He said he feels good and will start again in 2 weeks to Austral Island (French Polynesia) and New Caledonia. From there he will cross to Australia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambier_Islands For those who are new on the list; Willy is singlehanding his Montgomery 17 to Africa. He provisioned the boat with enough food and water for 100 days. (He also had a hand operated water maker). It appears he just did 90 days solo crossing this portion of the Pacific.....WOW... Congradulations Willi......!! http://www.msogphotosite.com/mpage.html Fair winds Bob Eeg (949) 489-8227
