FAQ:

Don’t you get lonely?

I have along with me my mountain friends. Memories of adventures and shared philosophy. I never feel alone. I also have the memories of my friend who have lost their lives doing what they love. I am keeping their spirits with me.


Sleep?

I sleep when I can. Only when the sea state, wind speed and direction do not change can I rest and then only when maintenance and repairs are finished. I have no regular schedule. I do have a problem in that I sleep so soundly nothing wakes me up.


Watch keeping?

I have an external buzzer on my intrusion guard alarm on my radar. It is loud. I have a Sea Me unit with a loud buzzer as well. Carbon has no radar signal so I use electronics. I am on deck very little but can see 360 degrees from my cockpit bubble.
