acknowledged

This morning's emails included a press release which included the announcement that Webb Chiles will be awarded the Blue Water Medal by the Cruising Club of America.  Webb is being honored for his five circumnavigations plus the 24,000 miles he has sailed the last couple of years on his Moore 24 GANNET.  Attention is not something that Webb seeks.  He just sails, writes and lives the life he chooses.  I am glad to see that his circumnavigations, and his life, really, are being acknowledged as something special.  Congratulations, Webb.
