  • Doug, Carol, and the "boarding party" of Solomons sailors

I received an invite to take a tour of S/V Seeker with some friends while they're spending time in Solomons. We loaded up the small SMSA skiff with far too many people, and took a slow, wet ride out to the boat. Once onboard, we enjoyed seeing the many unique touches, innovative solutions, and hand work done on the boat. Seeker is a 74ft steel-hull junk-rigged boat, built with the help of many collaborators and showcasing a myriad of creative DIY solutions. It was a real treat to see the boat and meet the owners, who were gracious hosts and show a great deal of care and enthusiasm.
