The Funding Drive
Now Moksha is safely housed, the next priority on the agenda is getting in the funds for the next leg through SE Asia . I'm confident that given some excellent sponsorship leads recently generated in Singapore primarily thanks to Melissa Kwee, Luke Beadle and Farid Abdul Hamid, plus some great offers of help following the feature on Apple Computers HOT PICKS section of their site, this will come about quite quickly. At least in comparison to this last leg through Indonesia that took 3 years to save up for!
We're also planning some workshops with kids at the SAF Yacht Club after Christmas. With their excellent facilities for giving multimedia presentations and Moksha being on site, I think we can offer an educational but fun program for young watercraft enthusiasts to draw benefit from.
In the meantime if you're missing stories from the high seas check out these guys currently rowing across the Atlantic . Erden Eruc is attempting a circumnavigation of the world by human power in addition to climbing six of the world's highest peaks en route (makes Expedition 360 look like a goof-off!), while Tim Harvey is circling the northern hemisphere by human power having already biked, rowed, skiied and canoed over 2/3rds of the way from Vancouver.
