	 Iron Mistress.  
    
         This is the beginning of a 
    five-year circumnavigation which we have been planning for many years.  
    During the summer of 2003, we quit our jobs, sold our house and most of our 
    belongings, loaded up the boat, said good-bye to family and friends and 
    finally cast our lines on September 26th, leaving Portsmouth, NH on our 
    stern.  
           We will update this website as time and technology 
    permits depending on where we are in the world.  We hope you enjoy 
    taking the trip along with us....

    bars on the left will bring you to various areas of the web site.  Some 
    areas are still under construction and will be updated as soon as possible.
