Half way there

We arrived in Bermuda on Wednesday at about 1:00 p.m. There was no small commotion. No one could believe that we had made the crossing in a 21 ft. flats boat. Everyone seemed to believe it was the first time anyone had ever done that. We got to meet a bunch of government officials. They turned out to be very helpful.
The crossing actually went quite well taking 51 hours including a lot of down time on the phone. My Brother Bob, who had never been on the boat until we started for Bermuda, was surprised the first time we went over some six footers. He then realized why I was so confident in the boat. That turkey, later told me that he thought I would turn back at the first big waves. The boat handled the waves beautifully. Most of the waves were 3-6 ft in size. For about 100 miles or so they were larger ones. We thought they were 6 - 8 footers. We found out later from the government that they were nine and ten footers. We only had five waves come over the bow and only two as far as the wind shield. None of them were real bad. Unfortunately the wind was up most of the way 10 - 25 mph, maybe even a little faster than that and blew alot of water back on us. There was nothing dry on that boat.
It looks like there is a front comming through from N.Y. and we will have to wait here for a day or two to sit out the weather, life is rough, stuck in Bermuda, but somebody has to do it. I want to remind everyone, that I am the builder, and this is not something I would recommend to do at home.
