Keil
Keil
A backbone of a boat, even keel is perfectly afloat
Off keel is a difficult situation, but oft risked to discover a nation.
The danger is to capsize but the definition of keil is to stabilise.
The world wasn’t discovered by people how say how the doer could have done better, and mimic and criticise every letter.
The credit belongs to the person who tries and falls and tries again, who will succeed no matter when.
He took 4 ships with which to probe, he lost 3 and his life to sail the globe.
They put his name upon the Strait on his route to circumnavigate but to be a little more specific he placed the name on The Great Pacific.
To combine the surname with the nautical alas is no mistake, the artist knows fair seas do not good sailors make .
