A big voyage in a small boat...

Who says you need a big boat and a big budget to go cruising? Meet my friend Ben and also meet out little mahogany dinghy "Puff". Over the years I've had lots of small adventures on "Puff" with my kids so when my friend Ben Shaw mentioned wanting to do some small boat voyaging around the bay this summer I offered up little "Puff" and the challenge was a go.... read Ben's blog to find out what it was like spending a week sailing, sleeping and voyaging in an 8 foot dinghy on a long loop around San Francisco Bay at shawkeane.wordpress The adventure was epic and I have a feeling it won't be his last on "Puff" either!
