SV Seeker is 65 tons and can move at 8 knots ( 9 mph ) but how much can she pull? What kind of power will she have for towing equipment, or running into rough seas? If you tied her to a tree with a scale to measure the pulling force, how much do you think it would be? Make your guess now, because we are going to find out.

This is not a problem for quitters. If your going to quit, then you are saying there is nothing more you can learn, and nothing more you can think of to try, and there is no one else that you can approach for new ideas.

The journey is never ending. There’s always gonna be growth, improvement, adversity; you just gotta take it all in and do what’s right, continue to grow, continue to live in the moment. –Antonio Brown
