Thanks for the links, Michael. :-)

More who have actually made the long journey:

John Dowd, founding editor of Sea Kayaker could tell
de le Fuente a lot about his "upcoming" trip and then some
http://www.seakayakermag.com/2004/June04/dowd1.htm

Paul Caffyn is another long-distance paddler (that's probably an
understatement):
http://www.sissonkayaks.co.nz/caffyn.htm (probably better links 
out there)

Derek Hutchinson - crossing of the North Sea and other expeditions
http://www.useakayak.org/derek_hutchinson.html

Paddlewisers Arthur Hebert and Larry Koenig - circumnavigation 
of Gulf of Mexico... the entire shoreline (in process, almost
completed)
http://www.lacostadelgolfo.com/

Ed Gillet - paddle from California to Hawaii
http://mwatton.customer.netspace.net.au/pacific.html

... to mention a few :-)

hmmmm... maybe there could be section on the PaddleWise website
for these kayakers?  Kirk?  I'll be happy to set it up....

cheers,

Jackie
