- Grandpas Farm - Going Sailing- was created to keep my family aware of my adventures and day to day.
I am selling the farm and will purchase a good used sailboat. I will fix up the boat while sailing around the world.
The voyage will be a journey of discovery. I will be naming the boat “SRV Grandpas Farm”. SRV stands for “Sailing Research Vessel”. We will be participating in and with, several citizen science projects and data collection efforts. We will be doing our own water tests while underway. Testing for PH. TDS. Salinity, Hardness and Temperature. Our starting list of organizations we are working with is: Reef.org and the ASC Micro Plastic Study. We hope to also collect data for shark, whale, dolphin and turtle research, among others.
Why a sailboat? Sailing is the most eco-friendly means of travel. Powered by the wind with reserve diesel power. Our intent, is to have the smallest carbon footprint possible, while conducting a great amount of research and data collection.
Who are we? Just a grandfather and his dog, who is deeply concerned about our planet and especially about the creatures in the world’s oceans. I am a UA-camr, Scuba diver, sailor, storyteller and adventurer. We anticipate having visiting scientist on board from time to time.
I found the following quote motivational and descriptive as to who and what we are about.
“A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.”
By Joseph Campbell
Wow, Very interesting story. Thanks Grandpa
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
Great footage. Stay warm. Looks like you've got some great memories to help. It's 54°f here in central Ohio at 6:10am.
Not so great memories. Minus 23 this morning and the forecast is, its going to get cold the next week or so.
More memories to be made each and every day! Stay warm. It's 62 here now.
