If Sunsation had a magazine, that would definitely be the feature story! Very cool!

Thanks for the great feedback, everyone.  We were honored to have been featured by Sunsation.  The process started after a conversation I had with FASTech at Outlaw Challenge, who thought that my Sunsation is likely the "furthest distance from the factory".  Shortly after that conversation, I sent a note over to the team at Sunsation to update them on "Hull 32-255".  Sunsation became interested in the story and asked if they could write a piece on it.  I said, "sure" and two weeks later was interviewed by the PR firm representing the factory.  The result is the story you read online.  I think they did a great job in characterizing our journey.
I'm also hearing that the story has been picked up by a few other national online boating media/magazie outlets.  Watch for it soon :)

Read the article right away after your text, pretty impressive.  If "others" pick up the story, that will be even better.
