Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival 2024

Bryan and Bethany Lee and their two middle schoolers spent 10 months traveling on their 50-year old sailboat down the west coast of the US and Mexico and back again.
They sailed through rough water into life-changing experiences, finding strength in themselves and each other as they navigated each new passage.
When their hand-built dinghy went missing on the coast of Baja, they built a new one in five days in a Cabo San Lucas parking spot and carried on with their journey.
Over and over, they met strangers who became friends and drew closer together as a family to conquer the challenges that came their way.
They believe you don’t need a huge budget or a lengthy timeline to find cruising adventure. Come hear stories and see photos of their voyage and leave inspired to keep adventuring yourself!
