But that's not the end of the story. In 1981, Gerry Spiess took "Yankee Girl"
to the Pacific, and successfully sailed from California to Australia.

How did he fit enough supplies for such a voyage in such a small boat? Doesn't

Built of recycled plywood....

Uh oh. He's liable to get a "kluge letter" from California. ;-)
