Perhaps many members are unaware that one of our members has been on an ambitious adventure that includes sailing from San Francisco down the coast of California and Mexico into Central America. Currently Briana Moseley and boyfriend David are in Costa Rica preparing to embark on a voyage to the Galapagos and eventually to Australia aboard Tusitala, a 47-foot wooden sloop designed and built by Briana’s grandfather during the 1950s. Tusitala, as some will remember, was formerly a fixture at FBYC when owned by Briana’s Dad, Jack Moseley.

Now it is possible for anyone to live vicariously through this adventuresome couple by virtue of their internet blog entitled Tusitala Sailing located at tusitalasailing.com. The blog is filled with fascinating narratives of their experiences punctuated by pictures and videos recorded since the beginning of their journey back in late 2012. Once you have landed on the blog to enjoy their travelogue from the beginning of the trip, you may click on the small tab in the lower right corner to subscribe to future blogs delivered automatically to your computer or ipad just by entering your email address. This blog is highly recommended for anyone who has even once fantasized about “sailing off into the sunset” to exotic regions where snow and ice are not even a distant memory.
