Way cool, I read the story about the first guy that did it, he had nasty salt water bedsores all over him, did not have a water filter, or much food but he sure had balls.

This has always cracked me up

Quote
After paddling and kite-sailing all night, I brought my kayak into the calm lee of Maui outside Kahului harbor. The scents of rainwashed soils and lush tropical plants washed over me like waves of sweet perfume. No one greeted me when my bow dug a furrow into the sandy beach. Stepping onto the beach for the first time in more than two months, I could not make my legs obey me. They crumpled underneath me and I sat down heavily in the shallow water A local character staggering down the beach asked me where I had come from. When I told him that I had paddled my kayak from California, he whistled.

"Wow. That's a long way", he said. "Must've taken you two or three days, huh?"

"Yeah", I said.

wow !!   With balls that big, who needs flotation? Seems like 6 cameras is a little excessive though.IMO two cameras and a few flasks of whiskey would be a better use of space. I wish him well on his journey.
