About Us

Our Sailing Travel Blog

We recognize that any story has many different angles and interpretations to it.  I have always found it interesting and a bit amazing that two people can experience the same event but take away a completely different experience.

At times you will read about similar experiences on this sailing travel blog but by a different author and you will enjoy a different point of view.  That was purposefully done and we hope that it makes for a more enjoyable reading experience.

Our Sailing Travel Blog Will Have Three Points of View

"Sailing Travel Blog: Conrad playing the guitar in Pensacola Beach FL"Our little family has three people in it.  My name is Conrad Cooper and with many thanks to my dad, I have been around boats and sailing as far back as I can remember.  I always knew that someday I would jump aboard a sailboat and explore the islands.  Around the age of 40 I decided that someday would never come as long as I didn’t set a date.  So that is what we did.

Sailing Travel Blog: Roxanne floating in Pensacola Beach FL.

My wife, Roxanne Cooper, and I met at a marina.  She was the harbor master and I was living on my rickety 30′ sailboat.  Though she was born and raised as a country girl I must admit that I think she enjoys the boating lifestyle more than I do.  It didn’t take much convincing to get her to quit her job and pack her stuff.

 

Sailing Travel Blog: Logan at mom and dads house.Then we have our teenage daughter Logan.  She is also a country girl and would like to remain that way.  She is a semi-reluctant participant in this adventure and I personally look forward to her posts on our travel blog.
