An obsession that grew over T the years, and fortunately, despite the many obstacles that life presents, thanks to the help from many people that I had the luck to meet, the dream, as I call it, became a reality. First and foremost, I must thank my wife Ramona (Mona), to whom this book is dedicated. Her love and commitment made it all possible, always by my side, supporting me and my crazy ideas, with her uncanny common sense, especially in those weak moments, notwithstanding being seasick every single time that she stepped on the boat. She went along for over ten years, in the cramped accommodations of the ship, not only as my first mate but also as a companion, mother, and daughter’s teacher. I owe Catalina (Cata or Catita), our daughter, my apologies for having taken her, for long years, away from her friends and the joys of being a regular kid and for having placed her in that cramped boat with adults with no space to run and play. I also want to thank my other kids. First of all, Francesca, our oldest daughter that I have no doubt, would have shared with us much more of our life at sea should she not have been involved with medical school, residency, and finally as a doctor (where she has excelled, and always has made me proud), and later with her own family. Rodrigo, my older son and sail mate, with whom we shared fabulous sailing moments thru some of the most isolated and treacherous waters in the world. And of course, Louis, who with his wit and lighthearted demeanor, made some of the long passages a breeze. I cannot forget my best friend, partner, and master surgeon Alfonso Muñoz who took care of my patients and carried my surgical practice better than I could have, while I leisurely enjoyed sailing the oceans of the world. Without his help, it would have been much more difficult, if not impossible, to realize this dream. I also want to thank our employers 1 1 at the time, Banner Health, for allowing us to live our dream while at the same time maintaining our Jobs with full pay and insurances. A heartfelt thanks to Isabel Vasquez Andriola and Jose Miguel Olmos; they helped me with the book design, the maps, and the web page attached to the book. Last but not least, I give thanks to the hundreds of people that helped us along the way and everywhere we stopped. One of this book’s conclusions is that the world is full of good people and that the misery and evil we hear and see in the daily news is not what we are as human beings.

It was 2 AM; I had gone down below two hours earlier, I leaving her in the cockpit to keep an eye on an ominous line of enormous cargo ships that were sailing not a mile off our port side. The vessels looked like a string of pearls, following the tight shipping lanes leading toward the busy Los Angeles Harbor. We were motor sailing on the way to Catalina Island out of San Diego, and it was our first overnight passage together. Louis, my seven-year-old son, was sound asleep in his bunk. There had been a steady swell from the northwest, which, thus far, had made the trip uncomfortable. There was no wind, and the moon - always that reassuring beacon during a night passage - had disappeared under the western horizon. I found out later that Mona had been seasick from the time we had rounded Point Loma after leaving behind San Diego Bay’s tranquil waters. She hadn’t said a word; she had helped me with the watch, had put Louis to sleep, had even pretended to enjoy the pasta dinner that I prepared partly to impress her with my culinary skills. I didn’t realize that she had gotten rid of that dinner by emptying her stomach several times over the lifelines. As I climbed up the companionway, she pointed towards the vessels in the distance and said nervously, “I think we are getting too

We were excited; charged up, and ready to go. We’d been in San Francisco for a month, and now it was time to move on. Around the corner, under the Golden Gate Bridge and twenty miles southeast, is the small community of Half Moon Bay. It is a well- protected harbor and we dropped anchor there, just inside the breakwater. The following day, we arose in the early pre-dawn hours. We put on the navigation lights, radar, Depth sounder, GPS, VHF radio and spreader lights, while we pulled up the anchor, and then headed out of the Bay. Once past the channel markers, we encountered a problem. We could not engage the Auto pilot due to low battery. Fearing the loss of GPS and radar, we swallowed our pride and returned to anchor.

  • Hans Christian 33 Ref: 7959066 Year: 1985 Location: Ladysmith
    PRICE: CAD 119,800 HANS CHRISTIAN 33 REF: 7959066 YEAR: 1985 LOCATION: LADYSMITH Hans Christian is known for building beautiful seaworthy vessels, with traditional good looks. The Hans Christian 33 was a progression from earlier designs that created more interior space, a long waterline, and a hull shape that better resisted healing. The double ended design combined with the long bow sprit, and cutter rig are unmistakably Hanse Christian. The interior of the 33 is surprisingly spacious and comprises a U Shaped Galley, Dining Area, Long Settee, Navigation Table, Pullman Master double, Double guest cabin, and a Generous head and shower in the forepeak. The richly finished teak interior combined with bronze portlights and a large overhead butterfly hatch, make this a welcoming refuge whether at mooring or underway. This particular boat has received regular use and care by its current owners who have been enjoying this boat for the past 17 years. The vessel was recently hauled for its underbody service and it is ready to start new adventures with a lucky new owner. The vessel is stored off site and will require an advanced appointment for viewing.

  • US Sailing Rig Dimensions Database
    ABOUT THIS CRITICAL DIMENSION DATA FILE There are databases that record critical dimensions of production sailboats that handicappers may use to identify yachts that race and to help them determine a sailing number to score competitive events. These databases are associated with empirical or performance handicapping systems worldwide and are generally available from those organizations via internet access. This data file contains dimensions for some, but not all, production boats reported to USPHRF since 1995. These data may be used to support performance handicapping by affiliated USPHRF fleets. There are many more boats in databases that sailmakers and handicappers possess. The USPHRF Technical Subcommittee and the US SAILING Offshore Office have several. This Adobe Acrobat file contains data mostly supplied by USPHRF affiliated fleets, a few manufacturers, naval architects, and others making contributions to database. While this data file is generally helpful, it does contain errors of omission and inaccuracies that are left to users to rectify by sending corrections to USPHRF by way of the data form below. The form also asks for additional information that anticipates the annual fall data collection from USPHRF affiliated fleets. Return this form to the USPHRF Committee c/o US SAILING. How do you access information in this data file of well over 5000 records for a specific boat? Use Adobe Acrobat Reader’s ‘FIND” feature, <CTRL-F>. Information currently in the file will be displayed for each Yacht Type/Class upon request. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
