Aquasition is a story about fulfilling a dream.
About an obsession with the sea.
The feeling you get when the wind blows across your bow,
the rails bury, as your vessel finds its grove and you
become one with wind and sea. A silent rush of adrenaline
as you glide effortlessly across the sea propelled solely by wind and will.
Pure unbridled joy I tell this story as closely as possible from my ships logs and memory.
If I have forgotten a few facts, or people, or a few places, I apologize in advance to those that helped and sailed with me along the way. You all have my never ending thanx and appreciation for contributing to what has become a wonderful life.
Enjoy the ride!
