Series Drogue Arrives

I received my package from Australia yesterday, my Series Drogue, The one piece of equipment that can save Namaste from large seas. In the box was an old paper back book with yellowed pages “Ice Bird”. Ice Bird is about a man (David Lewis) who’s dream was to single-hand to Antarctica. After 2 attempts, 3 capsizes, and a dismasting he made it. On page one there is a quote I had to share with everyone:

“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with
open eyes, to make it possible.”

T.E. Lawrence, Seven Pillars of Wisdom
