Project BlueSphere

I'm being reeled into the matrix once again. The only difference is I feel in control this time. I'm leaving Fort Myers on Tuesday to help my friend step his mast on Wed/Thursday. I'm planning on flying to San Juan PuertoRico on Friday and catching a jumper to Tortola. I'll provision for a few days […]

One of my 2 major projects (Autopilot & Windvane) is nearly finished. The windvane was beeyatch to install! Last year I sailed half way around the world. One of the things I learned is I want an Aries windvane steering my boat, here it is! I had to remove Splendid’s name and hailing port as […]

Wahooo! Wait till you guys see the new website, it's really going to be awesome!   David took off on Sunday and I've been working around the clock getting another version of the DVD to the replicator in California. I'm hoping to get a hard drive shipped tomorrow. This has really been the project from […]

My buddy David (my web guru), and computer geek extraordinaire is here from Texas for a few days. We are building the new projectbluesphere.com website. It really will be ultra sharp, we will launch in a month or so. Stay tuned for lots of surprises! On the DVD forefront I'm about to jump off a […]

Okay, here is a new update video. I’ve been scraping paint and grinding fiberglass, when do I get to go spear fishing? I’ll have the autopilot drive mounted by Monday. My buddy Aras came down and re-thunk the whole thing with me. His idea for mounting was better than mine and I ground off 4 […]

Splendid is becoming more and more of a disaster as I get deeper into the rabbit hole. That being said I feel pretty good about it, got to keep a good attitude right? For some reason I got more fiberglass on me yesterday then usual and my skin was really burning, so uncomfortable. Did you […]

I dreaming of cruising again. The famous Vietnamese/French sailor, Bernard Moitessier, said it more eloquently, “Once the coast disappears astern, a man alone before His creator can’t remain apart from the natural forces around him. His body and mind, freed from earthly bondage and attachments, can find their essence and purity in the heart of […]

I got back to my beautiful Splendid last night. Our trip on “Larissa” (31′ Cape Dory) ended about 6pm yesterday. I’ve never sailed a Cape Dory before but I’m a big fan now, what a wonderful boat! Eric (The owner) took us out to dinner at Joe’s crab Shack last night. The guys went out […]

Not too much time to write but I wanted to post an update. We arrived in Tampa arount 10pm last night. We had a nice 58 hour sail/motor from Niceville Florida. We caught a wahoo and had it for dinner and breakfast. I’m going to cut a cool little video about the trip and post […]

Well I got a call to go on a 400 mile trip in the Gulf. I’m bringing Splendid into a slip and taking off on Sunday and will be out of touch for the most part of the week. I broke down and bought myself a nice bike today. I found a used Schwin Mesa […]
