6/30/2009- Time to go…
Time to go...

It's been a long, long trip. Along the way I learned a lot...and am still learning.

Due to the finanical situations of the OceanPlanet Foundation and some of our key supporters, OceanPlanet must be sold for any reasonable offer or will be donated soon. For more info, click here.

All of the supporters who have poured sweat, savings, and time into OceanPlanet still love this great boat. However, without real sponsorship we simply can't afford to continue sailing, and must move on.

Do you have sailing dreams yourself? The Velux 5-Oceans? Transpac? Bermuda races? Or the Pacific Cup? How fast do you want to go? I will do what I can to advise and help of course, and have a lot of ideas on making the boat much faster or perhaps even doing a conversion into a blazing high-performance cruiser.

It has been a long ride. Thanks to everyone who became involved...there are far too many to list here, but you know who you are. OceanPlanet is truly YOUR boat, not mine. Most of all, special thanks to Kevin & Shauna Flanigan. Without you the boat would not have become the "OceanPlanet"!

Once again thanks to the people all over the world who have helped out, especially my friends in Les Sables d'Olonne !!!.
