From his explanation I understood that the boat he is in is quite well equipped for such a trip. It automatically balances out and turns over on the correct side in case of the wave flipping it. Aurimas also uses a piece of rope connecting him to the boat at all times in case of him falling out. There is also a solar panel powering multiple advanced GPS systems, radio and electronic compass. He also has an emergency bag that has radio anchor capable of transmitting an emergency signal with its location. Overall talking about his personality - he isn't one of those guys who would do something spontaneous for likes. He has quite an experience and sports background. From his interviews before the trip it felt he knows what he is doing and has what it takes. I hope he will make it happen.

He is relatively south in there northern hemisphere going from ayomonte Spain to Miami Florida. Weather in Ayomonte is high 60s for the highs and fifty for the low. Miami is warmer. I don't know that you would want it much warmer than that, and it is going to continue to get warmer as time goes on.

Chicken and egg. Wilson was as important for the rushing game as the rushing game was for Wilson in Seattle. I like Carson a lot, but trust me when I say he was nothing special as an athlete-just a tough as nails north-south runner willing to give his all. The system wasn’t designed around a top RB post-Lynch. The Broncos could easily find themselves a Chris Carson, I guarantee you that. You’re looking at the results, not the play on the field.

That being said, it was, however, designed around a heavy run-pass balance. That’s definitely not the type of offense Hackett ran this year. Wilson doesn’t need a top five RB, but there does need to be changes from this year.
