    Aloha friends, I hope you are all safe and well.  We are “hunkered down” at our home on the Big Island of Hawaii, where there are not many cases (but growing….).  We rarely get to Hilo, where Rainshadow is docked. But she seems safe for the moment.

    As you probably know, Marilyn is the “Moderator” for the Nic 38 forum, and she is great about helping people create new accounts, and keeping things going with her occasional summaries.

    You may not know that she is also an author, and has written a book on sailing between Puget Sound (Seattle) and Alaska (Glacier Bay), called “Taken by the Wind: The Northwest Coast”.

    I’m happy to say that in this month’s “Sail” magazine (mostly focused on North American sailors), she has an article on sailing the Inside Passage from Puget Sound to Alaska.  It’s a nice article and they gave her six pages!

    If you have the chance to read her article, I hope it inspires you to dream about future passages, even to the cold waters of Alaska.

    Unfortunately it’s not available for download at this time. The magazine might post it once it’s not in the current issue.

    Thanks for your interest, and thanks to my husband for writing this post – I might add without telling me first. He’s my best supporter!

    OK, something has gone wrong with Nick’s posting, which was here and now is gone…..

    But anyway, Nick asked where to find the article.  It’s in the May 2020 issue of Sail magazine, which is available for purchase here.

    In addition, the article is now available for online for free:

    Enjoy the nice photos taken by Van.

    And just in case the article inspires you to cruise the Inside Passage, you can buy my guidebook on Amazon.
