Here is a picture of that ocean going rowboat, I think there are three rowers and they are the U.S. team that is entered in the race, to row across the Atlantic. If you look closely you can almost read their web site. They certainly are adventureous.

The other amazing thing we saw the other day was a U.S. submarine. We had seen a big war ship that had sailed by and then there were these white boats that were pretty close together going in the same direction. I must have been looking in the other direction because the next thing I know between the two white boats was a SUBMARINE. My goodness, then I got out the binocs and figured out the white boats were Coast Gaurd cutters escorting the sub out to sea. It was really neat to see it, I felt like we really in the big leagues, no more small potatoes Gulf Island sailing this was the real thing. It isn't a very good picture, but I am sure if we had got any closer they would have got pretty nervous.
