Hello and Welcome!!!! We are David & Eileen who have a love for the ocean, mountains and travel. We both grew up in the Bay Area in sunny California. We had both moved around after High School and College before we found each other.
David after college spent some time in Colorado, Utah and Washington chasing the snow. Then shortly after he entered the Peace Corp where he spent time in Nepal and Guatemala. Afterwards he found himself on the westside of the Sierra working for the US Forest Service where he put his forestry degree to work. He spent his career there for 32 years.
Eileen also found herself in Colorado shortly after high school chasing those snow flurries. Later would finish her degree in interior design, bounced around Central California and on the coast working for PG&E for 34 years.
Later we two passionate skiers would meet at Bear Valley Ski Resort where we were working to be on the volunteer ski patrol. Then one thing led to another…after we discovered we each had a love for skiing, travel and hockey (first date was a Sharks game!) We married and Eileen would leave the coast for the mountains where we both would work and complete our careers. It wasn’t all about work and no play. We travelled, chartered sailboats in exotic places, went to hockey games and of course skied.
Now we are both retired. We sold everything and then bought a house on the coast that we can eventually return to. And in the meantime, we are running around barefoot on a Leopard 45; island hopping.
Thank you for coming along with us on our adventure!!!!
Raven is a 2019 45 foot Leopard Catamaran, she has 3 cabins (Raven, Dragonfly and the Mermaid Room) and 3 heads. A comfortable forward cockpit, that is great for cocktails when friends come over and David’s favorite place to lounge. We have a fully enclosed back cockpit that Eileen enjoys hanging out in, includes a large table to do sewing projects, playing games and also great for cocktails and dinners.
Dragonfly is our vehicle to transport us to land. She is a Highfield dinghy with a 20hp motor and she is very trusty.
Mosquito is a Maverick Pro Drone, she has not been out as much as we would like, her fly zones have been limited. We do hope to see her in the air more.
