5 BOATS on the WATER!

Drew Ratcliff writes, "We launched the last of the boats two days ago and spent the day yesterday preparing to travel down the river. We are buying supplies in town today and plan to leave this afternoon. Hooray!"

"this afternoon" for them is right now! So for most of us, by the time you read this, the Ocean of Blood crew will have set sail.

WOW!

Hi-res version of the image is online here. It'll go on the blog and get blasted to media later today, but I wanted to give y'all a sneak peek - because it's fracking amazing!

Congratulations to everyone on the Ganges.

Now the real journey begins.
