Thanks for sharing your special tribute to your mother and your dog. They were lucky to have you in their lives. I appreciate your being able to accept what is. That's a hero! I'm wishing you the best as you continue to live life to its fullest.
Everything you do is so heartfelt and worthy! What a beautiful memorial to your mom and Skylie. I hope, in time, you remember this moment as an evolution or transformation of your dream into what may come next.
@@PacificSolo That water (the outer basin of Nawiliwili ) is the roughest water in the state, according to the 'fishing-community' state wide. I got my third lumbar busted in a pitchpole some years back. We were sailing down wind (over powered, and were passing the swells. We were sailing a 'down wind luff' with the wind aft of us. I could not bare off from directly down wind, so we eventually came up the back of a big swell and dove into the trough. It was akin to a bomb going off. Everyone (two crew) were launched, I was strapped over my left knee to keep me aboard at all costs. So, because I was lashed, I was whiplashed at the hips. The crew was swimming, I was still fastened with both rudders point up, bow submerged and the mast floating. The next swell rolled the catamaran into a typical capsize position. I was still lashed, dangling head down with a busted bone. (shattered). My second attempt at getting the weight off my lashing succeeded and we righted the boat and sailed it back to Kalapaki. By 10:00 PM I was hurting...

Relieved that you are ok, always sad when a best mate passes on, but knowing she had a great life and her memories and spirit live on with you.
Thanks !!

I really hope you find a new beautiful dream, Lowell. I'm sure Skylie would want you to continue.
Thanks soooo much
I am so happy for you brother.
Thank you so much 😀
You’re living your best life!
Tyler and Julia are such great folks. We let them use our slip in Long Beach when they sailed Ramona down from Monterey.
They truly are great folks. I count them as among my dearest friends. Thanks for your support of them while they were in Long Beach
WELL DONE MATE , LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT STEP, WHAT EVER IT MAY BE.
Thanks Mate

So, you were sea sick coming across from Oahu? That is not unusual.
thanks for watching. Glad to hear I am not the only ;)
