We have a 35 ft boat that we are currently refitting. We live in Hay River, NWT so we will be starting on Great Slave Lake, down the Mackenzie to the Beaufort and on from there. I have run the MacKenzie many times and been as far as Tuk with my smaller boat so that is very familiar. After that, the adventure begins. Thanks for the insight from your journal and we hope to provide the same. Hi:

What a journey! Congratulations. What a great read! Logistics interests me much and I was curious how you refueled the boat in these remote communities that don't have a marina. Tom Hi Kip & Walt,

I retired from IBM in 2002 and have been watching grandchildren as my exciting life. It has been 5 days a week, 10 hours a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Faith is still teaching elementary students (4th & 5th grade) in a private school in Roswell, GA. Hope all is well with you. J Burke Marietta, GA Walt and Kip,

How exciting that must have been, every day a new glorious scene to behold. I lived in Alaska for 20 years and never was able to see such wonder. I can't believe how far you traveled, what a hill top moment for you and your husband to share. You look like a natural Kip. Hi Kip, Thanks for sharing the adventure.

I would still like to get a couple of photoes of your boat and crew for a book on all the small boats that have sailed the NW passage. I see you left your boat in Sitka, I use to live there. Thanks Gary Hi Walt
