Do you have his blog URL? I seem to have misplaced it. Smart move,
definitely. It's better to wish you were sailing than wish you weren't.

Looks like his engine problem is in the fuel line. The engine was
switched from gas to diesel but they didn't replace the fuel line. Really
bad advice on a $6000 boat. I had an original factory (1980) fuel line
which was clearly restricted on my boat due to the max RPM increase when I
replaced it. Looked fine but who knows what was going on inside.

Ah.. thanks. I found it right after I posted.

Kid has guts to undertake such a voyage, especially alone. There aren't many
who don't do even close to this.
