In my spare time I enjoy traveling, sailing, and taking long walks with my dog (a four-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Winston).

While we bought the boat intending to sail it, so far, almost all of our time has been spent restoring and repairing it! With new issues always popping up, like a hole in the hull that needs a plug, or old varnish that needs to be replaced, the prospects of sailing the boat anytime soon are not great.
