I've heard good things about Sail Mail http://www.sailmail.com/. Put together by Stan Honey who is both a engineer and I beleive the current holder of the monohull singlehandle record from San Francisco to Hawaii.
I think Katz is aluding to the book "The Nine Nations of North America" by Joel Garreau. A very interesting book that holds that the normal, formal geopolitcal boundaries of N.A. do not impact their population's values and behaviours as much as the boundaries and conditions that Garreau illuminates. I highly recomend Garreau's book.
