Good tale. Thanks for posting it.

How about the one featuring the aeronautical engineer from KS who
trailered his 22-foot Bayliner down to Mexico, lashed a row of gas cans
to the gunwale (to ensure adequate range for the crossing), and set out
across the same waters?

You are aware of the "gas bag" fleet here in New England aren't you?

There are people who do this all the time during tuna season to get to
the Canyons and beyond to fish for tuna.

The hero of the tale that I remember would be well positioned in "the
gas bag fleet." :-)

Bet your tuna fishermen don't set out into hurricanes, however.
