This site is created with material from our old site http://svphoenix.net which still has the lion's share of the material. I will continue to leave both sites open until this site has all the material from the old. I have lots of new material waiting in the wings as well - and of course I hope that with this new, interactive site I will also hear from you as well.
Jon and I are sailors that hope to explore more of the watery world by sailboat. We have made one offshore trip and are planning for the next. In the meantime we continue to work on our boat and sail local waters.

We hope this compilation of what we're learning and doing will be useful to you. Please also considering sharing your own information with us by logging in and commenting, contributing to the forums or contacting us via the contact link at the bottom of the page. I'd also be glad to link to your own site in the resources area.
May we meet someday in a quiet harbor. Bon Voyage!
