Condolences for Neal

[CapnK]

Several of y'all have 'met' Neal Petersen thru the site or chat, so I thought I'd post a quick note to let you know that Neals father passed away Wednesday.

Neal is doing OK, he came by the boat yesterday for a short sunset getaway and we talked for a couple of hours. He's been busy making arrangements for his new boat, and starting the process of getting his 2012 BOC challenge set up. A sailFar member, Ken of S/V "Osprey", is going down to get the boat ready, he and Neal will start moving her north in a few weeks.

Anyway, if you'd like to send Neal a note outside of this thread, his email is his first name, followed by the @ symbol, and then "no-barriers.com" (posting it this way to keep it away from spammers).
