We had a wonderful weekend exploring Hood Canal with our friend Kathy, and we wrote all about it here on Slowboat. We left Alderbrook on Monday morning and cruised all the way to Port Townsend (~58nm in about 8 hours). The weather was perfect, so the long cruise was chill…

We had a fantastic time at the Seattle Boat Show this week. Our Slowboat team gave ten different seminars spread over the eight day show, and we could not have asked for better audiences. Several sessions were standing room only! We stayed at Elliott Bay Marina the whole time and…

We’ve been in Anacortes for a few days gathering spares and checking things off our “projects to do on Airship before heading to Alaska next month” list, but we got enough done and the wind finally stopped, so yesterday morning we left the slip and cruised out to Sucia Island.…

We spent a few days in Anacortes doing some boat projects and general things like cleaning and reorganizing cupboards (which included ditching stuff we aren’t using…good to do this when you spend a lot of time in a small space). It’s so easy to keep adding more things to the…
