SEEKER arrives Home

SEEKER arrived home to a wonderful welcome at Shilshole Bay Marina, friends and family arrived to greet the crew, which included a welcoming boat at the entrance. After over 5000 ocean miles SEEKER has completed the journey with all hands arriving home safe and sound, with nothing broken on the boat, and all systems up and running. This is a excellent testament to the skill of the crew and thoughtful preparation of the boat. It has been a joy and fulfillment of a lifelong dream to have completed this voyage, and a huge thank you goes out to Andrew, Gary, Gordon and Lauren for their outstanding job as crew, and to all of our families and friends who have sent their love, support, interest and encouragement. We wish you all the spirit of Aloha, and of adventure in life. The ocean is vast and crossing it with good friends on a small boat is a reminder of our own vulnerabilities as well as our strengths as people, as friends, and as sailors. My compliments to the crew of SEEKER. You have each demonstrated your skills and seamanship as sailors. It is an honor to have shared this journey with you and I look forward to crossing many more horizons with each of you in the future.

Mahalo to all

Ken Greff, Skipper
S.V. SEEKER
