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.

Making Progress

Position at 0700 12 June

The wind and seas are lightening so pretty soon we will probably be motoring but right now the conditions are great. A little cold at a balmy 4.8 degrees C but otherwise we are making progress.

Had some issues with steering yesterday. Found a leak so think that is where the problem is.  Luckily it is slow enough that we should be able to keep ahead of it now that we know it is there. Thank goodness I have lots of hydraulic oil on board.

Not as many birds but still plenty.
