crackers Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 He's made the mature decision to get a lift after more than 300 days at sea rather than keep drifting towards the typhoon season. He might have made a tough decision, but what a trip! Quote
ivan Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 bummer. that's gotta hurt. can't imagine why he'd have a problem being in a john-boat in 50 foot seas? so what's his next step then? Quote
ketch Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 :rawk: Erden, Who knows he may come back to wait it out. I'm down with a littel slide show and to the man. Way to go Quote
Rad Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 It takes maturity to make that decision despite having invested so much in this passage. Like our parents said ages ago, do your best. No one can ask for more. Quote
alpendectomy Posted May 24, 2008 Posted May 24, 2008 I'm sick of everyone kissing that humorless windbag's ass!!! And don't tell me I'm spraying because you're talking about rowing in a climber's forum! Quote

Did you create this avatar just to cut him down anonymously, or what? Fucking coward. Your opinion is worth less than shit in my mind because of it. Quote

And don't tell me I'm spraying because you're talking about rowing in a climber's forum! i've never met the guy - does he truly have no sense of humor? if so, would that still reduce the coolness factor of having rowed across most of the largest damn ocean on earth in a cracker-box?

Gary_Yngve Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 Erden rocks! He's funny too! His semi-daily reports rowing across the ocean kept me motivated while I was finishing my thesis. Quote
catbirdseat Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 I've climbed with the guy and he's really fun to be around. Not sure why anyone would want to put him down. Quote
