A new vision... |
In 2010, Kerry and I made a commitment to each other.
We were going to purchase a sail boat and live aboard for at least five years.
Five years into that we started thinking about travel aboard Brigadoon and becoming full-time cruisers.
In 2017 we completed an 1180 nautical mile circumnavigation Vancouver Island, which provided us with a lot of experience anchoring and several days sailing offshore.
In 2019 we cut ties with the land as much as possible and took the first big leg and sailed to San Francisco from Port Townsend, Washington.
In 2020, we think it's time to move back to land.
With almost a thousand hours operating Brigadoon in various cruising grounds throughout the Puget Sound and British Columbia, we've learned a lot about teamwork, and self-sufficiency. We've been lucky enough to cruise in some of the most beautiful waters in the world.
Brigadoon is for sale. She sits ready in her berth in Alameda, California, waiting to go to sea with whoever is lucky enough to have her.
As for us?
And now...it's time for a little house or cabin, maybe in the woods, maybe on a river...
One can dream.

Both sad and good to hear. I know how hard you worked towards offshore sailing, but you know, you did it and that is definitely something to be proud of. I like that you have a second goal and knowing you two I know you are going to crush it! Onward!
