| Welcome to the Slip Away Website. We are
Captains Rich Crowell and Jan Schwab, and Slip Away is our 1978 Islander
Freeport 41' ketch-rig sailing yacht. We left Los Angeles (Marina del
Rey) in April 2003, and our long-term plan is to spend the next several
years exploring the world.
We arrived in Opua, New Zealand, on December 16, 2011,
and we plan an extended stay here - land travel on both the north and south
islands, a number of boat repair/maintenance projects, and a trip to the USA
(by plane) during the summer of 2012 (NZ's winter time) to visit family and
friends.
We keep a log of our travels and photos on
this website. We hope you enjoy it! |
