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.

I was in Colombia for two years in the Peace Corps some time before the Shilshole years. Every town had a feria that lasted for a week when nobody made it home before dawn and all the nice girls came out to dance. When you are in the river swim with the current---. Some Peace Corps volunteers made a profession of it earning the name Cuerpo de Paseo for the PC.
Stumbled across a Carnival in the Caribbean while delivering a boat, and believe me it put anything I saw in Colombia to shame!
