A big trip where we're going to spend a lot of money -- we like to see the world a little more.

That trip is always a very important part of our season. It's good for the team to spend a few days out of the water and bond. Everyone supports and helps each other while we're there and when we come back we're ready to rock and roll. I feel that our team is far ahead of anyone else.

If there's not enough money in the bank account, you don't spend it.

We're pretty much in this situation now because last time their goal was to do it fast rather than right.

There's only one thing that's going to help, and that's the flow-way. It needs to flow, and it needs to flow south. We need to get out of this at some point in time, instead of digging deeper and deeper.

Before they started, we told them exactly what would happen, that they couldn't possibly finish it in that amount of time. They've left us out here totally at the mercy of the weather.
