Expeditions

I travel slowly, on my own boat, to places that are difficult to reach and that I've long wanted to see for myself. The photographs, videos and writing here are my personal record of those journeys: where I went, who I met, what happened aboard, and what I understood differently after being there.

Transpacific 2026

On May 14th, Adak left New Zealand bound for Alaska. It arrived in Victoria on September 10th.

The passage took us across the South Pacific, through New Caledonia and the Marshall Islands, and eventually north to the Aleutians. From Dutch Harbor, we continued east through Kodiak, the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound before heading south toward Icy Bay, Yakutat, Juneau, Petersburg, Prince Rupert and Victoria.

This first season was about bringing Adak north and getting to know her: the boat, the coast, and the places I want to go back to.

Alaska 2027

After the 2026 season, Adak is wintering in British Columbia. In 2027, I will most likely sail her back to Alaska. The route and the shape of the season are still open, and the Logbook follows how I'm thinking it through.

Getting Back on Trail: Choosing a Path Without Guarantees

After the plan I had for the boat did not work, I have three options: sell her, operate her commercially, or sail for sport or pleasure. Each path forces me to ask why I bought her.

If you know a place worth seeing or someone I should meet, I'd be glad to hear from you.
