I heard you discuss your Hawaiian R&R from Vietnam and how you first met your oldest son there. My cousin also reconnected with his wife in Hawaii when he was on leave from Vietnam. His wife had just had a baby that was about 3 weeks old, so she left the baby on the mainland, with her mother. My cousin never met his son. He was killed a month later. Your story did hit home with me.
Very interested in your electronics installation. Do you have two F77? Do you have Trackvision? Are you watching TV? Do you have plans to have a sat receiver for television as you go around the world? Which charting software program are you using? What charts did you end up using? When operating on your autopilot, do you alternate using one today and another tomorrow to equalize ware? Has anything broken down since you left stateside? How much time each day are you on the phone? Do you use MPDS or F77 for your access to the internet? Have you estimated what a daily usage would cost a non sponsored vessel owner? Please share the anticipated vs actual feul burn for the trip, estimated arrival time vs actual arrival time.
My wife and I envy your trip and hope to do the same in the next few years, best wishes for a safe and enjoyable trip.
Hi Keith,
I have been following your first leg to Hawaii and enjoying it.
Have a good time in Hawaii.
Mike
Keith,
Congratulations for arriving in Hawaii !
Simple questions to ask. Did anyone onboard G-Adv get sea sick during this first leg to Hawaii ?
I will look forward to seeing pic / video updates in Hawaii.
Thanks

Aloha Keith and Crew. It is now 3:30 AM your time, Friday the 13th(!!). Hopefully you are snug “starbordside to” at HYC guest dock, or at least in view of Koko Head and Diamond Head with a beautiful sunrise in the offing in a few hours. Know you will (or already have) enjoyed an outstanding welcome by the HYC officers and members. Should be plenty of bubbly, maitais, heavy pupu’s etc. As I mentioned before, my family and I spent some quality time at HYC during our twenty five years as residents of Hawaiiand members of HYC.
I know I heard you say more thane once that you had some info on ETFs, but I cannot seem to find it. Is there a link, or what? I have several Nuveen ETF’s, and want your latest input as to the concept, and the company or companys that you feel offer good products.
I would like to be there to welcome you, but now reside in Litchfield Park, AZ, with no hope of returning except as a tourist. Pitty.
Good sailing, looking forward to your April 15 “Hawaii calling” program.
