86-Year-Old Texan Builds 62-Foot Boat to Sail to Alaska
An 86-year-old man from Mineral Wells, Texas, has spent nearly 40 years building a 62-foot steel boat since 1987. After visitors learned of his dream to sail to Alaska, they started a crowdfunding campaign that raised over $41,000. About $50,000 more is needed to complete the boat and move it to a launch site.
