About

In June 2012, I will be taking part in a solo, non-stop, unassisted race to Hawaii aboard my Wilderness 30 named Domino. The Singlehanded Transpac has been described by some as a "A bug light for weirdos". Follow me and my fellow “bug light weirdos” as we prepare our boats and ourselves for the downwind run to Hawaii.

Odds and Ends

January 29th, 2010

Just a quick pictorial update on Blue Moon–The boat is actually ready for a sailing. I am saving all the painting and “looking good” details for last. Right now she is a lean mean 4 knot machine. We hope to be sailing tomorrow in the Three Bridge Fiasco, weather and wind permitting. Blue Moon is still currently without a motor (it is on the list but still very low on the list.), so having wind will be crucial especially with that late afternoon 4 knot ebb :) We will see…
