And I love adventures too, especially on sailboats. I’m a systems engineer, a musician, a Remote EMT and a lover of all things rugged and wild. I take fun very seriously.
After twenty years in a cubicle, I left it all behind for a nomadic life on the sea. In ten years living aboard, I’ve logged more than ten thousand nautical miles, most of those over long voyages, many in some of the most dangerous waters in the world.
The Race to Alaska, a 750-mile sailing-slash-endurance race with no support and no engines allowed is a notable example — and I’ve finished that race three times!
I know this new project is ambitious, and the journey I am setting out on is long and likely treacherous, but this is kind of what I do. 🙂
The first step in preparing for the journey was to figure out where it all began – the location of my birth.
