About Me

Welcome to my boat blog! Join me as I embark on exciting adventures TBD!

As the captain, I choose navigate the open seas with a sense of adventure and freedom. Join me as I share my experiences.

Captain Steve

I have spent a life-time on the production side of show business. I am currently the Stage Manager at DeVos Performance Hall in Grand Rapids, MI. I have owned many boats and have cruised extensively. Most of my previous adventures we aboard a Westsail 32. My last boat was a Nautical 43. As life changed, so did my boat profile. Now sailing single-handed, this little Nauticat is the perfect vessel to take me wherever I want to go.

The Plan

The plan, like the boat’s name is TBD.

With a passion for cruising under sailing and a love for adventure and “going places,” I am dedicated to capturing the essence of my voyages through vivid storytelling. Life is funny, so we may as well laugh! Embark on this journey with me and discover the wonders just over the horizon.

The Primary sailing waters will be the Great Lakes until retirement. Then, I’ll head where ever the water and weather is warm and the drinks are cold!
