I know this is off-forum, but it is entertaining and somewhat instructive and motivating too: How 2 Texas cowboys crossed the Atlantic in a plywood homebuilt 16 ft. Hartley trailer sailer. Imagine how far a 20 ft. BRe could take you.

-An old article from 1988, in 4 photographs. Pardon the quality.
