Recent advances in navigation and communication equipment, unavailable a few short years ago, have greatly improved sailors chances of survival and success. Nevertheless, the waters of the North Atlantic Ocean still present many different moods and difficultoften extremechallenges. In 1996 three Lake Ontario sailors from TorontoHenk Borsboom, Peter Becker and the author, Dick Grannandecided to accept the challenges of the North Atlantic Ocean on RABASKA (big canoe), a thirty-seven foot Alberg sailboat. The adventure had a huge impact on their lives, and their memories tell fascinating stories of what they experienced on that trip.
