And an inspiration to all of us old farts;

Webb Chiles, and away he goes!

If you scroll down to the next photo of a trimaran named Orion. I use to work for the owner Tom Siebel up on his ranch in Montana. I new Tom was into a lot of different things but didn't know he was into sailing.

I am a big fan of Web Chile's and I have him to blame for my decision to downsize. OPEN BOAT is one of my faves. His quest to find Bligh's ghost at the site of the Bounty mutiny ...Great reading. Crossing oceans in a Drascomb Luger??? Really??? Wow! He also gets the award for most unusual boat names  :D
