Anke and I live aboard WAYWARD, our T32x8 ketch. We sail engine-free by wind and water, brain and brawn among the islands of mid- to northern Southeast Alaska. We try to maximize the joys of life, and minimize the chores.
We live between the communities of SE Alaska, but drop in to visit with friends.
We're working toward a subsistence lifestyle, somewhat impeded by addictions to coffee, chocolate and cheese.
We think TEOTWAWKI is looming, and while we won't be ready, we'd at least like comfortable seats.Â
Our personal TEOTWAWKI is fast approaching in the guise of older age. We're prepping our fleet and assets in the face of one to several decades of declining abilities, aiming to live happily on or very near the water until the end!
Here's a look at who we are, where and how we have lived aboard several of our designs in SE Alaska.
