Indian Ocean 8
We had our first conference call on Saturday to accomplish some crew business.
We lost 2 of the crew, Kris Goris and Jez Gordan. Reservists Jose Gomez and Adam Nutall are now called to active duty. Two more from the 32 applicants will be selected as reserves. There is possibility of a crew sponsor in the works so a proper boat name should be selected soon. Our boat number is 8 of course, what else would it be? For those who will be following online I do not know the color of our dot. For those who have never followed an ocean rowing adventure online, every boat has a number and a corresponding color of dot associated to the satellite tracking beacon. Every day people will be able to go online and track or follow our progress. People will also be able to send us messages.
The members of the crew are busy training and fundraising. The ground support staff is busy preparing the boat and Deb has been working on the website. www.PirateRow.com
