Here's the follow-up at Latitude 38. The boat, Catalyst, capsized in huge seas, and safely floated into a little pocket from which she was rescued. Amazing that it survived so well.

Amazing story, and everything turned out pretty good, considering.

We went cruising for a few years.
After 20 years we are STILL "cruising for a few years".

Curious as to how she went over, pitchpoled or side swamped ?
