There are over 500 emails in my “Stephens” mailbox. Godfrey is a tumultuous stream of energy and output. Here’s a fragment from an email today, about the time a seal jumped on board his sailboat Mungo 1. (I don’t like to edit Godfrey’s stream of words.)
This Cutie came aboard in 1982
Dana point where I anchored s/v MUNGO 1 for the night
Please note sail is up and pulling
She left just off the Scripps institute
after a few failed attempts at boarding
a Long torpedo toward the boat

and eventually flopped up to bask on the starbd fore deck
sailing along at a few knots toward San Diego
I could feel the heart beat of this animal throughout t he hull
an empty ness was felt when She slipped over the side and vanished…
