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.

Sadogashima (Ogi Town)

Position. N 37 48.870. E 138 16.827

Well we just did a three night passage.  I forgot to clear it with my sisters to figure out who wanted to do our position updates so sorry no positions enroute.  Hopefully will rectify that on next leg.  Good news is the transmission was truly tried and tested.  We motored the whole time nearly 78 hours.  We had the main up helping us when the occasional catspaw came around.  But basically it was a slog north.

We have not explored here yet but because of Golden Week it seems everyone is festive.  There are some funny wooden tubs that some ladies in funny costumes are rowing visitors around in.  Plus boat rides are going out every few minutes.

Zoom up to see the tubs and crew
