January 3rd. 2009, John Kendall

John called me up to tell me he has a friend who is an avid sailor in town, So we decided to take him for a spin on our Miami's Great Biscayne Bay. So John , Ken and Annie came aboard. The weather was great. Here is what they wrote:

"Talked about sailing with Asaad for a year now since meeting at the Ashram end of o8.

Perfect day and what a sail. Sunny, 75 Degrees, wind E 8-12 knots. Took turns steering and Annie rocked for her first time. Thanks again and see you soon, Ken Callant, Beach  Malen, NJ

Asaad was a perfect host and Captain. We all had a great time and Annie navigated with great panache, John

Thank you so much Captain A for letting me have the helm, All the best for the new year, Annie"
