In this episode, we interview Harriett and TL Linskey who run a non-profit that brings books to schools and students in the Caribbean. They cruise through the islands yearly on their 46 ft. catamaran and during the interview Harriett shares stories from their cruising history that goes back to the 1980's when they cruised their self-built Bristol Channel Cutter from Mexico to Japan. We also have a great discussion about their move from monohulls to a catamaran.
IntroChat
We have had a busy summer with sailing cruising trips to Dunnedin and Tarpon Springs, the Adult Summer Games event on Lake Toho, Cocoa Beach and Labor Day weekend at Ponce inlet / Disappearing Island, met some young sailor buying boats for very low cost and living on the water. And couple with 38ft meadowlark w/ lee boards, 8 1/2ft beam and draft 1 ½ ft. designed by Herreshoff.
It is that time of year when the northerners have to pull and winterize the boats. Bummer. We are finally getting some boat projects done – waxed our blue hull, using a new ceramic coating – Hydro Silex
It was really easy to apply and we will see how it performs to keep the oxidation from coming back. We also replaced our fuel filter that was leaking. Replacing the fuel lines and tank pickups is next.
My canoe build is almost done, but the final steps seem hardest to keep moving. Just need to install the seats, paint and varnish. It is a Michael Storer Quick Canoe.
We have a trip planned to visit Salt Lake City, Utah in Mid-October and drive up to Jackson Hole Wyoming, maybe Yellowstone national park in Montana, then back down to Park City, Utah. Let us know if any listeners live in that area and want to meet.

Please join us in supporting a great cause to help the students get great books in the beautiful Caribbean Islands.
