I suppose I'll have to read up on Hanno and his predecessors, its been
a while. But working your way down a coastline is just a bit easier
than striking out across a few thousand miles of open water.



You should know. You sail a catamaran, don't you? When (not if) a
catamaran capsizes it is healthier for the entire crew if it's within
sight of land when it happens.
