Somehow or other I've lost your last message.  I recall you were asking me why would Chip have died before his time?  I don't think anyone actually dies before her/his time.  He was 77 and had cancer.  Cancer being a disease hard to hide from because the causes are in the air, the water, the earth.....and so on.

I think some of Chip' s best writing and wit is revealed in the transcript of a talk he gave at the closing banquet of the XV Wayfarer Worlds Aug 10, 2013.  Do you have that?  It was probably published in the Skimmer.  I suggest you use that.  (Al's note: Summer 2013, page 5: How much fun is too much fun?)

Robert Mosher has volunteered to help me assess the boat, sell it, advertise it and so on.  Gary Hirsch also said he would come and look at Solje.
