A short history of SV Companion -
In April of 2005, Kim and I signed an agreement to purchase a Leopard Catamaran and place it in the Moorings Charter Program for 5 years.

Buying the last 40' Catamaran built in 2005 by Robinson and Caine of South Africa, the boat was to be chartered in Placencia, Belize. It arrived in Belize in late November, and was used by Moorings Chartering until June of 2010. During that time, we were able to sail our boat many times, and have a few charters in other parts of the world; LaPaz Mexico, Abaco Bahama, British Virgin Islands, Nice France, Gocek Turkey (Turquoise Coast).

Max , our nephew and his dad, Mike will be joining, Kim and I for part of the voyage. We are also looking forward to meeting family and friends along the way.

Our blog is intended to share our journey, memories and information to sailors.

Enjoy, Dale & Kim

PS: 10 years after the start of our voyage, we are living in LaConner with SV Companion and the adventure continues.

Surprise!


A surprise … most of you know I like being in control and surprises throw me for a loop! 

Well, “A Surprise” I got - Of course Dale knew all about this and worked hard at keeping a secret  … I was hanging out on the front deck of the boat and I heard “her” voice …

All of a sudden there Glori was - right here on Companion … what a surreal feeling to have my baby sister aboard our floating home …  


Sharing life with Glori is always so much fun  … giggling together, having new experiences together, reading each others minds, wanting to be together … that is what sisters want and do! 


I do think she knew I needed a “Sister Fix” …. She has a way of making life grand - always goes with the flow!

Floating with a Morning Mocha!

No words can ever express how much I appreciated all of Glori’s extra efforts to get to Costa Rica for just a long weekend! Memories for both Dale and I!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart - you make it sing and laugh till it hurts!!
