The boat was recovered, and now sits in Honolulu Harbor, in fine shape. Brandy and I had quite a bit of clean up to do, as the boat drifted 10 days before we got back out to it in decent weather. We are now going to captain (as a couple) a 70′ vessel named the F/V Jenny to Saipan, and tow the Pacific Star behind us!

I’m Christie’s Dad and the Chris Miller in this story. Ofcourse I knew the risks, there is always risks to anything. We had a good 1 week forecast from San Francisco when we left and that’s as far as the forecast gives. It’s a 15 day trip, so you have to buck up and go for it. Surely we could have stayed with the boat and fought out the storm, thus taking the risk of our lives. Who’s to say it may have worked out fine, but I chose the “safety first” way and got us assistance. We did recover the boat and all turned out well. The bottom line is that everyone is safe. Princess Cruises made good on publicity, we got help out of the storm, and we got our boat back. The media, such as CBS Early Show people were rude and hasty with us, promised us all kinds of things to get our story and simply treated us with much disrespect. I have an even more sour taste in my mouth for media programs as I did before after this experience. There’s more to the story, there’s more to who we are, and the shows simply want BUZZ!!!
