Our Story

Our first offshore trip was from Bellingham, WA to Hawaii and back. Then we quit our jobs, sold the house and headed out again from Bellingham. In San Francisco we changed boats.  We are currently moving slowly down the coast to Mexico and South America. Read about us, about our boat Eurybia, or use the menu (above) or search (below) to find our technical articles. Please sign up for our occasional newsletters (see the footer of the page) as well. We look forward to meeting you in comments here and in anchorages around the world. Fair winds!

What does Eurybia mean?

Eurybia (u-RIB-ia) is the Greek goddess representing Mastery of the Seas. Her name in Greek means “far-reaching power”. Eurybia is the daughter of Gaia (earth) and Pontos (seas). Her grandchildren include the Anemoi (wind gods) and Astraea (starry night) who became the constellation Virgo.
