Cruising Helmsman articles

About Colin Lowe

Hi I not living aboard our boat. I started this blog when cruising the upper North Is. In Sept 2012 my wife and I started work as caretakers in the Bay of Islands. You could say it is a dream job for us, and our boat is moored just off our worksite. My family (wife and two daughters) circumnavigated the globe several years back. Back in Nelson, while the girls went to uni and my wife drove tour buses I odd jobbed and maintained our boat. Now it is maintain properties and the boat during time off. This blog gives me practice in keeping up writing skills.
