Ben first fell in love with sailing as a boy, visiting the Atlantic Coast of Florida, where his grandfather had 19ft daysailer. Years later, following a summer spent as crew on a competitive and successful racing yacht on Lake Michigan, the deal was sealed. He was hooked and has spent a good part of his adult life trying to find his way onto boats. As owner, caretaker and captain of the beautiful classic sailing yacht, TRUE, there is little he loves more than being on the water and sharing the experience with others.
Ben has over 5,000 miles of offshore sailing experience including passages up the West Coast of the US from San Diego to Seattle, the North Sea from Sweden to Orkney, Scotland, the North Atlantic from Key West to Bermuda and the Caribbean from Annapolis, Maryland to the British Virgin Islands. In addition he has nearly a decade and many miles of experience sailing Puget Sound and the greater Salish Sea.
He is a United States Coast Guard Licensed Operator, has First Aid/CPR certification & Wilderness First Aid training.
He is also a husband, father of two, and professional musician with the indie-folk band, St. Paul de Vence.
TRUE comes from the design desk of world-renowned naval architect, John Alden, who designed over 1000 boats, including the majestic schooners of the 1930s and 40s. His work, without question, represents great American boat design, and our 44-foot Pearson Countess Ketch, TRUE, is no exception.
