I also have been meaning to conduct a few experiments regarding heathens and their buoyancy on salty water, and the resistance of the different species of fish to salinity as part of my new conceptions regarding Flood Palaeontology, so I guess it would be a most thrilling experience to sail with you

You must remember, my esteemed and learned Dr., that these voyages are not for the faint of heart - we spend every waking minute in long and arduous toil, sweating, gasping for air, up and down , riding the swell, tasting the salty sea flavours, lubricating the moving parts and hosing down the dirty decks. Its not a pleasure cruise. Expect to be sore and considerably lighter from the experience. Are you still interested? Many balk at the idea of constant hands-on toil for weeks on end - are you up for it? are you man enough?
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep. Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. Psalms, 107:23-30, KJV
