I just completed a trip from Florida to Homer, Alaska 7200 nm. I have a few photos on my web site from this trip. I noticed that you have a boat in the Inside Passage. I thoroughly enjoyed this area, the entire trip from Victoria to Homer was probably one of the most beautiful areas I have ever visited and I have over 175,000 miles experience. I would love to return to this area more often if you know of anyone needing a boat delivered in this area or needing a full time Captain for the season please let me know. I have a 100 ton Captain and Master License which I will soon upgrade to a 200 ton over the winter.

Please explain to me something, I know there are several captains licenses for boating, could you explain them for me?

Hi Darcy,

Really enjoyed your post. I was wondering if you had an suggestions for people wanted to accumulate 360 days on the water in 5 years time. Any suggestions?

Awesome. I don’t think I’ll ever be a wildland firefighter, or a boat captain, or a commercial fisherman, but I am LOVING these posts.

Great job, Darcy.
