Hi Crystal – Absolutely! You all at the Orca crew, and Dylan and crew at Tofino Bus helped a great deal in delivering our new tracking device. Please look for a post in the near future with more details! Have a great day – Greg

Hi Mickey – Timely photos are always to be desired, and now that we have an expedition under out belt with lots of new photos & USA/Canada involvement, over time we’ll revamp the website banner with a more current photo. The present photo was taken near the end of the 2006 North Atlantic Row from NY to England (thus, the flags). As for the title sponsor, the Canadian Wildlife Federation is supporting our current expeditions. Thanks! -Greg

It would be nice to see the Canadian Flag on the home page photo too, who is your major sponsor the USA Wildlife Fund

I have been following all of you, and so happy that you will be home soon.
Proud of you all. Good test run. Both Jims, I am sure, are each watching from
their different sides! YLA

Cool…..glad that you were able to visit my nephew Dylan, his wife Jen and my great nieces Ocea and Rio and to have spent a wonderful time in Tofino.

Beautiful imagery. Thank-you for taking us along for the ride. Many thanks to Markus’s family for the warm welcome – it means a lot to me and I know it restored their energy and purpose. You’re almost there – I know this trip was more than you could have imagined. Can’t wait to see you again and talk about it. Much love……

Hi Guys!! Congrats on all the accomplishments the past month. It has been such a delight to read the daily (almost) blogs as well as posts on Facebook/Twitter. I have promoted the row so much the past couple of weeks and have spoken at 3 schools this past month where the teachers all signed up to follow you all . Safe journey to that end point in the coming days (hope the weather gets better to see you back safely) and I look forward to seeing you all in Calgary just like Rick above.
