Hello Montgomery sailors..!
We got a message from Wilhelm and he made it non-stop to
"Rititea" (Gambier Island) on Feb 20th. (He left San Diego the
day after Thanksgiving. (November 23rd 2007)
He said he feels good and will start again in 2 weeks to
Austral Island (French Polynesia) and New Caledonia. From
there he will cross to Australia.

For those who are new on the list; Willy is singlehanding his
Montgomery 17 to Africa. He provisioned the boat with
enough food and water for 100 days. (He also had a hand
operated water maker). It appears he just did 90 days
solo crossing this portion of the Pacific.....WOW...
Congradulations Willi......!!
