Fred and Bob's Excellent Sailing Adventure



Fred Finlayson and Bob Webb are sailing across the ocean from Hampton Virginia to Tortola, British Virgin Islands.

We are sailing in a Rally called The Salty Dawg Rally and here is the website for it:


The boat we are crewing on is a Jeanneau 54DS called Sapphire with Bill & Linda Knowles who are the organizers of the Salty Dawg. There are more than 50 boats participating.

The expected departure from Hampton is next Tuesday Nov 6 (weather window permitting).

Also, we will be using a SPOT personal locator which sends a signal showing our location and you can track it on the internet by going to this site:


 Save the above URL in your hotlinks and you can check it from time to time.

When you go to the web page – change the map to “hybrid” and zoom out to get a better view.
