I've got it marked on my Calender now.  ...I have to make sure that work doesn't get in the way.  May 2012 isn't really that long from now so any of ya'll that are thinking about it start thinking about what your boat needs to sail 400 nM to be safe and comfortable.

...I wonder if there is a way I can turn my boat's 200 gallons of water tanks into a beer keg by then?

Oh, Oh, Oh, now that's a good idea.  If only I had a fresh water tank.  I do have a foot pump.  Maybe I can install a 16 of Shiner. That should be me there.

What we need is a 200 gal drop tank.  We can tow it behind.  It should be very hydrodynamic and will get lighter as the trip proceeds.

If you're pressurizing with CO2 then you'll carbonate the fluid.  Might as well fill the container with beer!

That's the idea dummy.  200 gallons of the best beer money can buy.  That just might be enough to get us there.
