Our Adventures with Sailing. The adventures of SV Do We 797.124. Where we started…. June 21, 2013. June 21, 2013. Today is June 20, 2013 and there is some catching up to do before we can talk about the present day. So we girded our loins and took the plunge. Then the only problem was, we don’t know how to sail….

June | 2013 | Our Adventures with Sailing
https://sailingvesseltrialrun.wordpress.com/2013/06
Our Adventures with Sailing. The adventures of SV Do We 797.124. Sailing the great green sea…. June 23, 2013. As I mentioned in the last post, we didn’t know how to sail. But, over Labor Day 2012 weekend we became experts at “sailing” in the backyard. There were a number of ‘trial runs’ with this device, both in design and use. Ultimately we learned, that in this case, faster was better. Then the next issue; the jib furler. No matter what we did we could not attach it to the bow. And we were. For anyone ...
Clearing My Head | Our Adventures with Sailing
https://sailingvesseltrialrun.wordpress.com/2013/08/16/clearing-my-head
Our Adventures with Sailing. The adventures of SV Do We 797.124. August 16, 2013. Barb has done a bunch of posts. Now it’s my turn. One of the reasons I wanted to re-learn how to sail was because, at Scout Camp those many many years ago, sailing the sunfish class sailboats they had at Woodworth Lake gave me time on the water to relax and commune with nature, as it were. Picture of Trial Run – but not today:. Picture of the sail track stop:. Picture of the sail slug, also known as a sail slide:. I have a ...

Our Adventures with Sailing. The adventures of SV Do We 797.124. The End of the Beginning. January 17, 2015. There is a joke that says there are two happy days in a boater’s life. The first is the day he gets the boat. The second is the day he gets rid of the boat. Well, unless something unexpected occurs, today is the day we get rid of our first sailboat, Trial Run, and move on (move up? Blue Water Yachts Furler Pin →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Trial Run | Our Adventures with Sailing

Our Adventures with Sailing. The adventures of SV Do We 797.124. July 8, 2013. July 8, 2013. What’s in a name? Rose by any other…. Truth is she is our learning boat. The trial run of a weekend hobby. The trial run of the cost of owning a boat. The trial run at co-existing in a small space. The trial run of our sea legs. The trial run for Sampson. The idea is delightful, but what is the reality? Can we afford a slip for a larger boat with fees for Internet and electricity? Clearing My Head →. You need a p...

Drift Away: The St. John's River, in Photos
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2015/03/the-st-johns-river-in-photos.html
Sunday, March 22, 2015. The St. John's River, in Photos. I used to love my "day in photos" blog posts. Nothing tells a story quite like photos. Yesterday, the folks who Pam works for, who have become friends, invited us to go for a ride on the St. John's River on their pontoon "boat". We haven't been on the water much since selling Drift Away, and so leapt at the chance. Lots of fishermen on the St. Johns. He's wearing a life jacket for a reason. This is the reason. People who don't understand wakes.
Drift Away: August 2013
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 13, 2013. Green Cove Springs Marina WARNING! I gave them a call to make sure they could accommodate us. They asked the size, weight, and beam, and then confirmed that they could easily haul Drift Away. Pam and I even took a road trip there to talk to the staff in person. We arrived at Green Cove Springs Marina on May 10th, tying up to their wall. Not the prettiest marina we've been at, but the cleats were adequate. We can't haul your boat.". It's too big. We can't do it.". OK, do it.".
Drift Away: Are You Waiting Before Cruising?
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2014/04/are-you-waiting-before-cruising.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Are You Waiting Before Cruising? You're sitting in your cubicle, bustin' your butt, working working working. You're thinking that you can't wait until you can retire and go cruising. You can retire at 62, but 65 would be better. Your social security check will be a few hundred dollars a month more. Two scenes. Bear with me. Nothing family was discussed. Ever. Enter Al Gore's internets and Facebook. Now to tie it all together. Ocala is only fifteen or so miles from here! The one...
Drift Away: Missed Photo Opportunity
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2014/04/missed-photo-opportunity.html
Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Yes, on the ride back to Eureka, we were pummeled by huge thunderstorms. They're predicted everyday until Sunday. I need to pick one day to fetch the Whaler with the trailer that Earl and I fixed up, unless the boat sells first, which it might. I stopped at Holland Marine to inquire about them lifting the Whaler off the boat with a crane. Why don't you use the electric hoist on the boat? You mean tip over? Naw, that won't happen. We've done it before.". David, we have a problem!
Drift Away: June 2014
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 5, 2014. Drift Away Has Been Sold. They say that the happiest two days in a boat owner's life is the day he buys his boat and the day he sells it. I'm here to tell you that isn't true. I think we enjoyed the people we met along the way the most, especially our cruising friends at Isle of Hope Marina in Savannah and at Brunswick Landing Marina in Brunswick, Georgia. I won't name them, at the risk of forgetting someone, but you know who you are. I also appreciate all of you blog followers wh...
Drift Away: September 2013
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 12, 2013. The Book is Coming Together. I haven't been working on the book every day. Some days are better than others for me. But as of now, I've got 14,699 words, or 54 pages worth down on "paper". Only 45,000 words or so more to go. I thought I'd give you dedicated blog followers a sneak preview of the draft of the introduction:. What you are about to read is true. Nothing has been exaggerated, or enhanced just to make a good story. This is a compilation of our. Dave and Pam Gibson.
Drift Away: February 2014
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 4, 2014. Do you recall when Al Gore first invented the internet? He admonished all of us to be secretive. Don't give out too much personal information. The internet is full of crazy people who will kill you. Well, I've been on the internet since Al Gore was skinny, and I'm here to tell you that its a bunch of hooey. In the 20 odd years that I've been blogging, espousing my political views, and ranting and raving about boating topics all over the interwebs, I've only met nice folks.
Drift Away: October 2014
http://trawlerdriftaway.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 27, 2014. It's the end of October, and Pam and I (and our three dogs and cat, and Jeremiah the horse) are preparing to head south in our RV for Florida and warmer temps. As often happens, I think back on our time on the boat. With all the fun times we had, and the many fine people we met, it is with a sense of melancholy. I miss Drift Away. Yep this is the song that gave Drift Away its name. Just listening to this song makes me choke up a little. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). She is somewha...

Thursday, October 31, 2013. Was Writing This Blog Worth It? So only four more followers to hit 100, and we'll probably hit a quarter million hits within the next month or so. It's been an amazing trip. Thank you for sharing in it with us. Oh, and for the benefit of my cruising friends down south, this was yesterday morning. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sailing Vessel Millennium Dragon
Sailing Vessel Millennium Dragon. Sunday, September 23, 2012. After twenty enjoyable years filled with exploration, adventure, serene and exciting moments, my beloved and trusty Millie has left her home dock on Vancouver Island to delight her new owner for many future journeys to come. Safe and lovely.I will miss her. Friday, August 17, 2012. 17 August 2012 - Off sailing again. Stocked up, hosed down and ready to roll again for another sojourn amongst summery Gulf Islands. She is still - sadly - For Sale.
Sailingvesselmustang - Home/Oct
October 6- Our escort out of the harbor departure day from Stockton Springs. October 6- Wind 20 kts. Wind chill 30 degrees. Made 8 kts down Penobscot Bay. October 8- Sunset during an overnight sail from Cape Small ME to the Cape Cod Canal. Taken just after we sailed through a pod of 17 whales! Some close enough to smell their breath. One whale swam right under our vessel. Very scary! An awe inspiring sight. October 9- The following are images entering the Cape Cod Canal around 0800 hrs. The train station...

S/V Remember Me Cruising Mexican Waters. Sunday, January 8, 2017. Our 4th Season Begins. Hot, Hot, Hot in Mazatlan! Kim and Douglas cooling off in the very warm Pacific Ocean. At some point I'd love to find the time to take Spanish lessons by the pool, and maybe join in on the water aerobics too. Some members of our 5k morning walking group. Tom, Andy, Joanne, Donna, Sandy, Lane, Vicky, Jackie, Jan and Douglas. Our walking group changes from day-to-day as people come and go. Such a sweet ferrel cat.
