David's Story
Where to start??
I graduated RL High in 1981 at age of 17, went to Florida Institute of Technology (Jensen Beach) on a full-ride Army ROTC scholarship and graduated with a BS in Oceanography in 1985. Went on Active duty for 5 years in the US Army as a Corps of Engineers officer and was stationed at Ft Belvoir VA, Ft Knox Ky, Camp Castle Tongduchon Korea, Ft Lewis WA. I got out of the Army just before the Gulf War 1990 started. I have been working in marine/water-related environmental consulting and engineering industry in the Seattle area for the past 17 years (OMG!!). During all the work, I have done scuba diving in several places around the world, climbed the highest glaciated peaks in WA, OR, and almost climbed Glacier Peak in Mt.

ummit of Mt St Helens. I became an avid sailor in 1994 and raced on other-peoples-boats for several years. I met my wife Dayle through a work colleague in 1996 and took her sailing the day after we met. We started dating a month later and finally got married in Sept 2002. We have had the dream of long-distance cruising on a sailboat since about 1998 and have been working toward that goal for a long time (It's a lot harder to achieve than you might think). We purchased WILD SWAN in Maryland in 2004 and are preparing her and ourselves for a couple years of voyaging in the South Pacific. I quit my full time job in Mar 2007 and am working as a consultant to prior employers/colleagues/clients. We both completed a half-marathon in May 2008. you can e-mail me at :
