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.

Back on Board

We arrived late last night on to Sari Timur.  We think she was happy to see us as she did not throw any temper tantrums.

For those of you who have been following our blog you know that just before we left we found out all of our instruments failed.  Well this morning mixed in with unpacking we decided to do some trouble shooting.  Interestingly enough the wind instruments came on for a very short while but nothing else.  But then it started showing erroneous data before dying.  Anyway a lot of troubleshooting proved that it was indeed the wind instruments.  Once they were disconnected GPS, chart plotter and radar all work ok.  Luckily we ordered a new set of wind instruments and should have them next week.
