[Public-List] Circumnavigations

Mon Oct 22 06:10:47 PDT 2012

Glenn, 

Sure, let's work on this together. Good to know that you are as enthusiastic about the idea  as I am. I like your interest in placing information on the A-30 Web Site. Looks like we already have George's blessing. Guess we should come up with a format we would like to use. The Handbook editor can then lift the information from George for the Febuary 2013 publishing deadline. 

I have contacted George off-line for Paul Vibert's contact information. Paul said he was from eastern Canada, don't know if he means Quebec or the somewhere in the Maritimes. I not certain when Yves Gelinas completed his voyage. You mentioned someone completed the voyage in the 1980's? That would make (4) possible with Kirk Little.  Contact me off-list crufone at comcast.net and we can discuss further.

George, 

Yes. If you can get approval from the CBAA to have this information printed in our Annual Handbook I will do the research and provide the information. It is not likely that  these skippers will boast about their accomplishments, nonetheless they should be recognized by the Association which supports the boats they used in their circumnavigations. All A-30 owners should be proud of what they have done. I feel that it is only just that they are memorialized in our Handbook. 

George, make it so with the Officers if you can and I will follow through with the details of their circumnavigations. 

Thank you, 

Michael #133

Michael, 

Are you volunteering to gather the information? That's how the A30 
Association works. It's all volunteers.
