About Me

My photo
Alaska, United States
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.

Hirado

Position 33d 22.28 m N 129d 33.30m E. We just arrived in Hirado.  Another town steeped in history so we will add another post as we do some exploring.  But we are tied up to an old ferry terminal which is complete with floating dock.  And though it is old it is better than the best thing Guam had to offer to boats.  The town looks pretty neat.  We can see a castle and an old church, a temple and a Dutch trading post just from our deck.  So I am sure we will be able to add more.  But so far we have been here two hours and had two visitors welcoming us.  Not bad!!!
