Matt's motivation for the trip is to show people, particularly those with disabilities, that there are no limits to what can be accomplished in life; and to raise money for Chesapeake Region Accessible Boating (CRAB), a nonprofit sailing program for people with disabilities, based in Annapolis, Md.

Hey Matt, we have been watching you for while now, we wish you good luck buddy! You doing great job, see you back in marina in Annapolis…
We just finished reading a column on your adventure in the Seattle Times. Can’t imagine that much solitude. Let alone facing the power of Mother Ocean solo. We’ll gladly donate to CRAB for such a Herculean effort. Inspiring. Godspeed and safe home. We are rooting for you
Hello Matt,
Today the Seattle Times published a large article about your adventure on the third page. What a great adventure!
I am a sailor here in Puget Sound. Your stories, blog, and pictures make we want to get out into the blue water. I have aWauquiez Gladiateur 33′ sloop. I will donate to CRAB in your honor.
Good winds for the rest of your journey!

Matt,
Looks like the Seattle Times -and the Washington Post- have got you some good pub. I am most inspired by your humbled approach to doing something “bigger than yourself.” It is what we should all aspire to do. I have put the word out to me Chesapeake friends to donate. And I will do the same. God bless your final leg of an epic journey.

I just read about your journey and was so impressed with your fortitude and courage! You are in our prayers every night. I have done a little sailing along the pacific coast with my brother but nothing like this voyage. I have also chartered boats and understand how the unexpected seems to occur all too often. To your safe return Home! We will send a donation to crab in your honor.
Hey Matt,
It is Susan, here in Ellensburg. I continue to read with fascination and awe your trip and its trials and tribulations. I look forward to hearing of your safe return. God is good. Carry on!! S.
