About Me

My photo
Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico
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.

Tomorrow is the Day



We are back in Ensenada.  The trip up to Alaska went well.  Since Mark was going to be in Seward he could see his doctor and get his prescription renewed.  Another plus is it timed in perfectly with Father Tero’s 50th anniversary celebration.  So Pauline climbed on a plane and joined Mark in Seward.  We got to see a bunch of friends from Seward and spend some time with the Fish Hawk crew.  On the way back we spent the night with the Skerritts and picked up a bunch of stuff we had shipped there.  

We got back to the boat Friday afternoon.  And Saturday we both woke up feeling under the weather.  But it appears to be a 72 hour bug and Mark is already almost back to normal.  Pauline is peaking now and we hope she is up to scratch tomorrow.  

Tomorrow is the day we lift Sari Timur for her big dry dock.  We have been wanting to do this dry dock for many years.  However it required us getting to a place like this with a dry climate in order to do it.  It is mostly cosmetic but it should restore Sari Timur back to her former glory and get rid of all her poxes that have plagued her for years.  The best part of it is that the yard will work with us and teach us to do these repairs so if in the future we find we missed one or didn’t do it well enough we can attack it again by ourselves.
