About


This is a blog on my adventures in positive business, making things, the outdoors, and long voyages aboard small boats across big oceans. From 2006-2009 I sailed a Contessa 26 from Europe to Australia, via the Atlantic ocean, Rocky Mountains & Pacific. A feature length film was created by Berlin-based filmmaker Jack Rath, called Between Home.

In early 2010, I purchased SV Harmony, a Colin Archer inspired Aries 32, which I hope to use for continuing my exploration of the last true bastion of human freedom; our oceans. In 2012 a new voyage will be announced. This website is a personal blog, log of voyages, and an information resource for offshore sailors.
