Cruising Resources: Portrait of a Cruiser

Noonsite’s “Portrait of a Cruiser” series started in 2018 and aims is to give a face to the Noonsite community.

Here we profile regular contributors to the site, why they started cruising, their boat, crew, route, thoughts on cruising and much more.

As well as helping those new to the cruising life get a glimpse of what the possibilities are and learn a little from the experts, it’s also an interesting read for seasoned cruisers to pick up tips and find out what other cruisers are doing out there on the big blue.
