[Paddlewise] Do I have bad Karma?

A "friend" of mine mentioned to me the other day, that he couldn't
understand why other people paddled with me. After watching the news earlier
this week, he asked if the ship that sank in the Antarctic, The Explorer
(also known as The Little Red Ship") was one I had been on. When I answered
yes, he asked if the 4 masted sailing vessel Fantome, that used to be part
of the Windjammer fleet in the Caribbean until it sank during a hurricane a
few years ago,  was also one that I had sailed on. When I again answered in
the affirmative, he was utterly shocked that I'd actually go out to see in a
kayak. And he was even more astounded to learn that others go with me.
