Rowing in a fog

Rowing around the anchorage from Schooner People on Vimeo.

Sharing a quick video of David and me out in the Tinker Traveller rowing the perimeter of an anchorage on the north side of Santa Cruz Island, “there’s a boat in there somewhere” I say as I look for Mahdee on the tiny screen back of the camera. It’s funny but once you’ve gotten to an anchorage after a long day or night sail, sometimes you just sleep and sometimes you are antsy to get out and explore the place. The latter was the case here.

Sistership Magazine and Sailing Mahdee

Sistership Magazine is an international magazine; written by women for women on the water.  In June Sistership Magazine included my article about sailing Mahdee and this month, in a free November special issue, a reprint of the article is included.  I hope blog readers of Sailing Mahdee: Life Aboard a 1931 Schooner will also enjoy reading the article (page 76) in the free issue of Sistership Magazine online.

Schooner Mahdee

Traditional varnished woods, leathered mast hoops, and a mile of rigging grace Mahdee.
