“If the Spray discovered no continents on her voyage, it may be that there were no more continents to be discovered. To find one’s way to lands already discovered is a good thing and Spray made the discovery that even the worst sea is not so terrible to a well-appointed ship.”

- Joshua Slocum

On a day that celebrates single handed sailing, perhaps we can have a second Slocum quote:

“No king, no country, no treasury at all, was taxed for the voyage of the Spray, and she accomplished all that she undertook to do.”
