I am a sailor, born of a nautical tradition passed to me by my father and my Grandfather Alfred. I’ve spent most of life on my passion which is the sea and the vessels which go upon them. I have had many such vessels and now I live on and sail on the sloop WINGS. which I acquired in 1986 with my wife Judy who shared my passion. For ten years we lived on Wings in Seattle and sailed, including racing. Then we left the Pacific Northwest and voyaged across the world, across the seven seas, to faraway places, and made them our own. For thirty-eight years I have lived and loved this life. I still live on Wings, in Mexico, and sail and race often. Judy passed away in June, 2023 and I miss her but you can still join us and sail the seas as we did for all those glorious years.

Nikk and I enjoyed reading this latest post. Congratulations on your new sails!
Nikk is dreaming of sailing, and dreaming, and dreaming, since we are working on Balance in the dry yard in San Carlos. Maybe two weeks and we will sail out of here for the Baja side. After Tenecatita we will be in La Cruz by January, see you then!
