Captain Hare's seamanship was outstanding. His skills at operating a motor vessel were only surpassed by his strong attention to safety... [He] approached all tasks with a positive spirit and can-do attitude. He was always courteous in his manner and encounters with guests and crew.

David Hare is coming to you with the qualities of a natural leader: genuineness, warmth, compassion, and integrity. Just as importantly, he would come with an enthusiasm for learning and teaching, as well as a resolute desire to understand new theories and ideas. It is exciting to think of the ways in which he might contribute when given the opportunity. He is, quite simply, the most remarkable Captain and teacher I have ever met.

I have completed two Atlantic crossings on small sailboats... I am fond of my boat. I would not easily entrust it to anyone else (and until this [past trip with David], I never had). Having seen David 'close up' and in action, I would unhesitatingly let him deliver my boat anywhere in the world without me on board.
