Untying the Lines: A Journey Back to the Ocean
A lot of changes made to Sailing Vessel Northern Comfort to get her ready for cruising. I decided to write a book documenting everything we did to untie the lines and journey back to the ocean. This is a life-long change in direction and I’m still working on the courage (and projects) to untie the lines. It isn’t easy letting go.
Here are the current components of Northern Comfort’s tech:
