About Me

My photo
Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico
I am owned by Pauline and Mark Blasky. My hull was built at the Duncan Marine Yard in Taiwan and launched in Dec of 1980. It is a William Garden design based on the Pixie Design and called by Duncan Marine a Freedom 45. They are the fourth owners and have owned me the longest. They have done extensive refitting to me including replacing my entire deck structure and rig. My masts are roughly 10% taller than original and now are made of aluminium as opposed to the original wood ones, which, though pretty, were always problematic.

Christmas 2010


Christmas 2010 saw us still anchored at the Abanico Yacht Club in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, the Philippines.
John and Cissy, the people who run the yacht club, organized a really nice Christmas lunch for all the yachties in the anchorage.  We all had to come in some sort of hats.  Cissy put together a great buffet : ham, beef pastrami, liver pate, roast pork, roast chicken, smoked turkey, boiled tongue, grilled sausages, potato salad, beef paksiew (beef stir-fry in black bean sauce), chocolate cake, log cake and lemon pie.  Yummy.  We ate so much we didn’t need dinner.
We had a great time, socializing with other yachties and it was a fantastic way to spend Christmas.
Pictures to follow.
