i'm sorta happy, most of the time: "liars".

stories of Fiji, you'll enjoy.

Thanks so much, you are my good friends and i will miss you so for this time, summer 2019. I don't know how long, 5 months max, likely less.

It's complicated: -why? -planning. -get a boat. -disentanglement from the real world. -doing it. -& what can go wrong?

We'll surely get to each of that.

GOAL: boat the "Inside Passage", from Puget Sound, Washington, to ~Skagway, Alaska, and back, alone.

Here's a map... Google Maps doesnt have a "boat" route option, so of course no i'm not following the blue line, i'll be off, but close to, the coast.

Here are some ideas i have for BOATs: -this -& this -etc.

Notes: 1. A POWER boat is a good idea, as the winds & currents are weird. 2. Those boats are considered small for such a journey.

PLAN: 1. Buy a boat in the next few months. Disentangle, etc. 2. Head out in May. 3. Back by Fall.

DAILY: -Wake at first lite, head out. -Boat all day, til it starts getting choppy (so i'm told) in the afternoon. -Then find a sheltered cove and anchor. -Read, meditate, etc, maybe fish or beach-comb ashore. -Sleep. -Repeat.

It's a wild country, ports are rare, but when they are available i will resupply food and (critically) gas.

COMMUNCIATIONS: -much of the way, suprise, they claim i can communicate normally to internet, text, phone via verizon, as i do now. -further, i'll acquire a, as Cathy Anderson calls it, gadget, which will allow me to 2-way text, to anyone with texting, anywhere in the world, wonders of tech.

Folks, suggest a boat NAME: my poor ideas: -great empty -comftably numb or comfy numb -tangled blue -billy be damned -trinity -empty -numb -re-boat -reboot -"a loan" -too small to fail

We'll be in touch.

I did sail Baja, then the east coast from Maine to Key West, then the Channel Islands off Santa Barbara CA, fotos.

Lately, psych crisis, i am unmotivated, useless. Intensely i feel need to go off do something finally new and diff.

Watching the TV series 'Alone', i knew what that could be.

I will buy a boat, sail to Alaska & back.

This blog, the story of that surely last great adventure.
