1. Sorry to hear of your Mom's passing…
   Is it just two ropes holding your rudder on? Is there a safety line in case chafe sneaks up on you? Could you do a video about what your daily checks include, if there's a regular schedule? Thank you, fair winds!

2. That Tomatsu outboard looks great on WRII Allen…almost as if it was specifically designed for your boat. A good choice in the end I think.

3. Glad you made the decision to head down the eastern seaboard. Unfortunately when we get to this stage in our lives our parents start to check out. It’s not easy but cherish the good times and be thankful she did a good job. We’ll be watching!

4. Lots of prayers and sympathy form St Kitts , we are very sorry to hear of the passing of your mom 🙏 Bless her soul 🌹🍁🌹… Please stay strong Mr and Mrs Rover and family , the 🌎 are with you guys 🙏❤😢…. I am very happy to see that you have set your first solo sail 👍 Rover is looking great on the ocean , nice ! God bless 👍🙏

5. Hey Alan,
   If you are heading down the East coast of North America and need any support in Maine, I live on the Maine coast and have a mooring and can help. I'd be happy to help with food, lodging, supplies, whatever you need. I can lend you a mooring in October in a nice marina if you need a stopping point as well.
   Sail on,
   Pete

6. Good afternoon You have experience sailing Bermuda sails and now sailing junks. What is your opinion regarding tacking and speed characteristics? I'm not talking about racing, but about cruising alone on a 20 foot boat in the Baltic Sea. Thanks in advance for your answer.

7. Condolences. Make every moment count.

8. Fair Winds my friend

9. Condolences to you and your family. May she rest in peace.

10. Alan, Safe journey and sorry to hear of your loss. I live at the mouth of the Delaware River where you will likely turn and head NW up to the Chesapeake Delaware Canal and then down the Chesapeake… I'll be following your journey – let me know if I can be of any help when you get down here!!! Would like to meet you, chat about your sail rig. In 1974 I dated Karen, Thomas Colvin's daughter! I know you must know his name. I actually climbed aboard K’ung Fu-Tse in May of 1974. Rob

11. Thank you for this post, despite all you have had to take on. Wave Rover is really moving into her own as you add the final touches and sort out cruising details. It really is an amazing design. May you keep your mom close as you move through this chapter. Grief and gratitude go hand in hand as we work to realize all they mean to us.

12. Sorry for your loss. I didn't see any lines running to the tiller from your windvane. Is there a video on how it is set up on your boat? Mahalo

13. Alan you deserve a lot of credit, sorry, my prayers for you 🙏

14. Looks like Wave Rover 2 is sailing well. Sorry for your mamma. In the bulkhead You somehow have not wrote my name Arne Kvinge, but the name of the account it came from. I do not know why. But I read "Helse og ernering" in Norwegian. A nice one. Hahahaha

15. What happened with the boat, I thought it was 22 foot long now it's 21 feet long, did you get the measurements wrong on the building process or has it shrunk since being launched

16. Night would be a bit terrifying i imagine.

17. Hey Alan, Great to have run into you at Garrisons the other day, and talk about your voyage and mutual friends back in Ellerslie, PEI. My condolences on the passing of your mother, I am sure she was very proud of your many adventures. Fair winds and following seas! – Mike.

18. very interested in the passage planning etc keep it up please

19. Sorry for your loss Alan

20. Alan, impressed with your rain gear. What kind is it?
