Ed and I picked up our boats the same week from Performance Cruising. We chased each other down the Chesapeake in 2004, splitting up at Hampton when he left a day before me. He told the lockmasters in the Dismal Swamp to watch out for me, and apparently that I was the sailor of the world! They were extremely good to me, those lock tenders as was Ed. We met up again here at Titusville in 2005 - he was walking the docks and saw Doublewide. I had gone home for a couple of weeks. He found out when I was coming back and stayed until I got here. Was great to see him again and I hope to see him many more times out on the water...
