There is no better way to learn about the world than going out into it. And if you really want to see the Caribbean then spend time with the people of the Caribbean. Tank a boat ride, do some sailing, diving, or fishing. And eat and drink where the locals eat and drink. You will not be disappointed.

All you need to do is call or write Sloan and let him know what you want, and when you are arriving. Sloan’s Ocean Services (Sloan Leblanc) +1 268 780 6656 SloanTLeblanc@gmail.com

Boating on the river is great Fun. Doing it in a boat you built from scratch is Epic. Learning and overcoming challenges is Growth. Doing it with friends you made along the way is Living to the Fullest, and there is nothing better. –Doug

Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway.

It does not Work! …no wait.. Hey! Blessings from the Boat Gods!

Extremely tough, unsinkable, and no pontoons to keep patched and inflated. Give Kern or Kyle a call and talk to them about the last dingy replacement you will ever need to make. Tell them you saw it on SV Seeker.

We built an tough aluminum tender for Seeker, but it was just too heavy so we went shopping for a RIB, and Betsy came across the Whaly Boat. And it’s the perfect tender. Extremely tough, unsinkable, and no pontoons to keep patched and inflated. Give Kern or Kyle a call and talk to them about the last dingy replacement you will ever need to make.

Seeker crew Rock! Torque Converter Eliminator is in and we had a great time doing it. Many thanks to Dustin, Alexandria, Marc, and Jake. The greatest gift of life is friendship, and I have received it.

The greatest thing about Seeker? It’s not the size, the strength, her engines, or even the sails. It is the community of crew are supporters that have been drawn to her. People who are confident, adventurous, quick to laugh even at themselves, accepting of others, and who often say goodbye with a hug instead of a handshake. What a wonderful world we would have if we had more people like Seeker’s crew. That is indeed the greatest thing about Seeker. –Doug

Over the years I’m had a lot of people tell me this will not work, but so far it’s done very well and now it’s just a matter of improving it. So if you have an idea, be careful who you listen to before you toss it aside. Others are always quick to spend your money.

After a week of problems with fuel, starter, trim, all sorts of pumps and leaks; we took Mark Twains advice: cast off the bow lines and sailed away from safe harbor. In the back of my mind we might only make it a few miles before something broke and we were stranded. But like most fears we imagine, that did not happen. Instead we had a wonderful trip and even stopped to spend our first night on the river.
