Thanks for visiting us aboard Wandering Star.
We hope you will follow the daily adventures of the Wandering Star and
her crew as they make their way over 2,000 nautical miles from Seattle to as far north as Skagway, Alaska, and back to Seattle
again.
The trip will be made in three stages or legs over the spring and summer months of 2007. We
will be traveling with Dottie & Ken Saville aboard Dreamweaver, a 42' Savega Trawler, before both boats head south in
October for the winter.
Please feel free to contact us...we are happy to answer any questions about our boat or the
experiences we have had cruising North to Alaska!

Captain Adie and Admiral Jo will make regular updates to these pages as
time and weather conditions permit. Pea soup fog, high winds, huge waves, floating logs, icebergs, and a rocky inhospitable
coast are just some of the challenges facing our intrepid crew.
Join us as we cruise some of the most exciting waters in the
Pacific.
