Three men from Washington State and their trusty 44-foot sailboat, the S.V. SohCahToa, are about to complete a remarkable journey. The crew — Casey McNeese, Matt Smith and Jeff Stewart, who all met in college at Washington State University, shoved off from Seattle in August 2005 for an adventure that would take them to far away lands, almost land them in jail in Australia, and ultimately take them around the Earth plus some.

Technically, the crew of S.V. SohCahToa completed their circumnavigation of the globe a few months ago, but they will be pulling back into the port from which they left over two years ago in a matter of days.

Check out their ship logs — it’s compelling reading and the stuff of a great novel. And for goodness sake buy the guys a celebratory drink via their “Buy Us a Drink” page!
