In the last year, I have gone from being a solo around-the-world sailor, to being married. I now live in Seattle (my first city) and live for mountain rescue and alpine climbing.
This blog has formerly been dedicated to travel adventure stories, as much of the last ten years of my life has been spent on the move. Lots of sailing stories and foreign countries. But now there is a shift. The landscapes of my musings will now be mostly that of the Cascade Mountains; my travels will be those in a van to other mountainous areas. We live to run, to ski, and to climb (and to jump into cold water when we find it!)
Stay with me; the sailing stories are in the past, but I hope the storytelling shall remain the same.
Few boats have ever sailed through this blind pass of Caroline Island, like a cul-de-sac. Maybe as few as five in the last fifteen years. The seas are often confused and the visibility poor. I had a friend, Hugh, up on the spreaders, directing me on the VHF; you can hear him in the background. Herbert is commentating.
