An American Sea Kayak Adventure: Sea America Expedition.

Welcome to America! Are we, welcome in America? The United States of America is one of the most popular, the strongest, and controversial countries in the world today. We have developed a lifestyle and attitude of our own, within the freedoms that we allowed ourselves to live. This in turn has allowed us the leadership and privilege to be involved in the many important issues concerning the world today.

Sometimes when we find ourselves wrapped up into changing other parts of the world, we seem to forget our own country and the matters that are changing it from within itself. With such topics as our youth, racial confrontations, government, and our environment being in need of attention and refinement, how could we possibly solve anyone else's problems?

These are the things that must be conformed and adapted into our ever-changing society. For coming together in the future will mean to bury the past, no matter how difficult, because the past will just keep the fires burning.

So being that this how I feel inside myself, I am proposing a Sea America Expedition. Its mission; is to take a look at how we live in America today, and see if we can come together, set an example, and let others emulate the true leaders we can really be.

This expedition will be performed in the simplest from of watercraft, a sea kayak.

I expect that circumnavigating the United States in a sea kayak will raise many questions as to why I would do such a thing. The reasons why will come forth in this manner.

The trip will start in Seattle, Washington, and make its way down the Pacific coast into southern California. The next leg will be the Gulf coast, after a portage through Texas, and then up the Atlantic coast to finish in Connecticut.

The time allowance will be 6 to 8 months, depending on promotional activity and weather. Reports on the trip will be through various publications, (Atlantic Coastal Kayaker, Sea Kayaker) this web site and film.
