- About Me:
- I've been sailing since I was 12 years old, when my father taught me out on the waters of Puget Sound aboard our home-built 31' Piver-designed trimaran. These days, my wife and I are primarily cruisers. However, we do take part in a couple of ocean races each year, including the Oregon Offshore International Yacht Race. We're currently in the preparation stages of a 1-2 year cruise down the U.S. west coast and into western Mexico, with a start date of July, 2010.
- Current location:
- Portland, OR
- Destinations visited:
- Sailing: Mexico, Eastern Seaboard, Canada, Western United States, San Juan Islands, Canadian Gulf Islands
Not Sailing: Germany, Italy, Austria, UK, Key West
- Looking to:
- Exchange information on cruising with other serious cruisers, make friends in the sailing community, constant improvement of knowledge.

"Sounds like your rigging may be in need of tuning?????
(Owned B43#19 for 10 years), Sailed from Mass to Tampa to Bahamas with it, great boat, no major issues at all. Boat has flat bottom basically so no need to put rails in water. I found it a very…"
"I’d also do a test using only the main. The more testing you do the more likely you’ll find the problem. I’d also check to see how much the leeward shrouds sag during all the tests. Let us know what you find. Good luck
