In 2012 I created this blog to share a trail by fire journey, as my best friend Katie and I traveled America's Great Loop aboard a Cal 27 for two years. . . . . . . . .
And so today the blog remains, but the story has changed and so has the website !
You can find the sequel here:

I have met my other half, Luke. Together sailed across the North Atlantic aboard my fathers Pearson Invicta. Michigan to England. From my home to his. And now just like most of you... we are working out a way to sustain this sailing lifestyle.

Ain’t nothing a little bleach can’t fix ~ have fun ~ wear gloves and don’t forget to open the hatches.

Good to see you are back on Louise. I have enjoyed reading and seeing the photos of your adventures. I may be able to help in a small way so you can continue. On one of your past post you mentioned the tiller was delaminating. I have a barn full of wood to make a replacement or two. Let me know if you are interested.

Hi girls,
love your blog. How about putting an ozone generator into Louise. Waite for 5 hours away from your boat. This will kill all the mold and remove any organic smell. Works wonder.
Good luck in preparing Louise for the next trip.

i like this idea. you got one? never heard of one.
Here in Germany you can either rent units in car cleaning companies or by simple versions online. Don’t forget to turn it of and get lots of air into Louise. Ozone is toxic (that is why it desintegrates all organic stuff)
Like the vids and look forward to seeing your travels resume!
Boats really need ventilation when stored… they will go stinky without it. Live and learn. Wash it all down with a bleach solution… and scrub with soft scrub and keep well ventilated.
It’s good to see your back at it. Thanks for the update.
