| Sailing: I live for sailing. I grew up on Lake Murray near Columbia, South Carolina. I've been sailing for so long that my earliest sailing memories are kind of hazy. My family had several boats while I was growing up, but my personal fleet has included a Laser, Lightning, Fireball, and a Sunfish. After racing in drifting matches for most of my youth I moved to Charleston where the wind blows steadily thanks to a consistent sea breeze. Charleston has become home to some world class sailboat racing, and has played host to several epic sailing events. I've been fortunate enough to sail on some awesome boats down there such as a SR33, J105, J-30, F32, Melges 24, Y-Flyers, and several E-Scows. I'm a unified partner with the Special Olympics, and enjoy giving back to the sailing community when I can. I've gone back to basics so to speak, and have bought a Sunfish and enjoy the strength of the local fleet which includes former 2 time Sunfish World Champion David Loring. I cruise as much as time will allow, for I enjoy taking long journeys on boats when I get the chance. I've sailed a good bit offshore, but enjoy the tranquility of sailing with my brother all night long on his Morgan 27. Most people figure out how important sailing is when they hear or read my last name....it's a family thing. |
