Links from speech

This post is for the people from the SAR speech at La Cruz marina.  Hello and welcome to our little corner of the internet!  Please have a look around and check out our video blog below!

As promised, below are the links I mentioned in the speech:

The link to register your EPIRB:

The link to the USCG SAR addendum (638 page download in adobe, be forewarned 😉

http://www.uscg.mil/directives/cim/16000-16999/CIM_16130_2E.pdf

Would you like the Ditch bag & DC kit list I mentioned in the speech?  Comment on this post and let us know you want a copy and we’ll send it to you.

I can also email you the notes from “top 10 things sailors can do in 10 minutes to help the Coast Guard find them” I presented last Wednesday in Paradise Village.

If you have any questions, or would like to know more about how to best use your safety gear, or if you’d like me to come by and take a look at your gear, feel free to call me after the morning net call sign “Coast Guard Couple” or send me an email (contact info is in my sailing resume).

Also, if you know of anyone looking for a good crew, please refer them to this website and our sailing resumes & testimonials located in the margins of this page.  Thanks a lot and we’ll see you out in the Pacific!

Resort living

Hey everyone,

Though I know we are feeling quite sad for Tiffany as she is dragged kicking and screaming to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands to be paid to go on vacation for 2 months, I would also like to point out how horrible I have it. I am currently hanging out with our friends Allan & Alison on S/V FLY AWEIGH while they are moored at a private yacht club and resort in Mazatlan, MX. I would also like to point out that there are 4 bars on the resort no farther than 100 yards from each other and all with consecutive happy hours. But the Karaoke is rather painful, so mourn for me 😉 Alison wrote of our adventures in paradise on her blog, check it out at
