Read about this on the A-30 mailing list today.  Left san Diego in February and arrived Hawaii 23 March.

Here's the blog, which has not been updated yet  ;)

Congrats to the crew of Kolohe, Alberg 30 #473.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  -Mark Twain

I thought this was the boat, and just confirmed it.

CapnK mention this Alberg 30 in an earlier post.

Finally sold for less than $1000, took a couple of years to rebuild and now she's done a crossing.  Very cool.

All he's missing is a sailfar.net sticker!   ;D
