Mike,

This is very ambitious, but looks doable with the right planning and conditioning. To date, the most miles I've done in one day is 29 on the water!
Here is that trip.

It was pretty rough at the end with the wind and I didn't have a sail setup then, wish I did.

Currently, I could probably do there and back without much additional training, but the additional days would be taxing.

I really like your plan though and this could be a special trip, very rewarding.
If I had a little more flex with work and kids I would be all over this. Maybe I can plan on 2019! Another thought would be to get some promotion or sponsorship on this event, maybe have the proceeds go to a local charity like HOW or something.

PS

If you do some training or wanna hit some offshore action this summer, I could be down. I've been out a couple times this summer. Only like 8 miles or so straight offshore, but nine mile bank could be a fun day!

Cheers,

Todd

Yes Lets get out there in that blue water for sure, Next week if you are gamed. And don't rule it out Catalina completely for 2018 until I've had the chance to sell it to you in person

Wow cool Trip. It would be great if you could make it. We are going to do a few deep water days in preparation for the trip leading up to October if you want to come along for those as well?

Todd,
That's a great idea, my plan was never to make any money on this, but rather just have the trip of a lifetime, but if we can serve a higher cause all the better. So what I hope to do on this trip is to work out all the safety and logistical snags we are likely to experience on our fist way around the Island. Also I hope to get a bunch of photos and footage to promote future trips.
