> # Lindemann's solo crossing of the Atlantic in the 1930s In the 1930s it was Captn Romer. He never made it to he continent. Disappeared during a Hurrican after relaunch from - eh - St. Thomas? Lindeman had done 2 atlantic crossings in small crafts. First in a dug-out canoe 1955 and second in a Klepper foldable in 1956. Following year 1957 he gone a third time singlehand across the ocean, in a small (small for todays dimensions) sailing ship. Another really great ocean crossing, not in a kayak but in an open unsailed rowing boat, take place in 1896, See <daring the sea>, birch lane press. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
