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.

Further Along

Just before leaving the Cape we had the crowd over and made a Polish dinner.  We found a Polish grocery store in Melbourne so we grabbed some great kielbasa and some ingredients to make golabkis and perogies.  It became an extended family project with everyone lending a hand.

Thanks again Jeff and Linda for hosting us for so long.  And as usual making everything so fun.  We are also missing Aspen Skye and Ginny.


From the Cape we cruised down to Jensen Beach where Mark went to school when Florida tech had a branch there.  We stayed with Terry and Charlene and got reacquainted as it had been a couple of years.  Both grandkids are growing and we got to meet them as well.  The Omicron virus was going and Don and Mary had it.  So we had to visit with them via phone.  Both Terry and Don went to school with Mark.

After Jensen it was time to head south to Miami.  We stayed with Pat, Peri and Roxanne.  Mark worked with Pat on Mark’s first tugboat job.  Pat’s wife Dawn was pregnant with Peri when they left Seward.  Unfortunately Dawn got sick just after Peri was born and died.  But Peri is growing up fine and is a bright pretty little girl and we are sure Dawn is watching over her from heaven with pride.  Roxanne is Pat’s fiancée and is having fun helping Peri grow up.

While in Miami, we also got a chance to meet up with Kate and Petter, friends from Singapore.


Oops, Mark and Petter are blurry

Here is a clear photo of them
