Some of you may remember previous posts about this crazy guy I know who's setting a new sailing endurance record with his girlfriend aboard a boat he built himself and has already sailed all over the globe...

I check in on the boat's blog every week or so, and the latest entry cracked me up, especially the picture...thought you guys might find it amusing.
 Reid is a colorful character, but I've never seen him act goofy, and didn't take him for a "Parrothead", that's for sure!  Maybe over 100 days at sea has unhinged him, even though he's done it before...

Only 884 days to go, Reid... keep humming those Jimmy Buffet tunes and you'll make it for sure! LOL!!

Hey, he may be crazy, but at least he brought a woman with him....oh wait, that is crazy!  What a crazy guy....

Yes, it could go either way, couldn't it? But it seems to be working out so far for them... if you go back a few entries, there's one where they talk a bit about that, specifically.
I'd rather have her along than be alone on such a voyage (or have a male crewmate): she's pretty, and obviously bright and resourceful, even if she is very inexperienced at sailing. And she seems to believe in the mission- not just along for the ride.
