We received an email update today, March 18, from Jane and Sander in response to our banquet reminder .... they are currently in the middle of the Indian Ocean, 230 miles from Seychelles.  They caught a 40 pound Mahi Mahi three days ago, and haven't had much wind the past few days.  They send their regrets that they won't be able to attend the banquet, but they'll be thinking of us.  They send their emails via ham radio.  See the Satori page for a complete coverage, up until their departure from Thailand.

The 2007 membership renewal letters are in the mail. For convenience, you may renew on-line.

A new letter , and photos for the gallery, have arrived from Satori!  Read the latest from Sander and Jane, as they prepare for the next leg of their journey.  It's great reading, and sure puts the trip across Lake Michigan into perspective, as you read about the preparation for the 5,000 mile trip across the Indian Ocean into Africa!
