Time to say goodbye. Jeff and Mindy just sailed on by, taking the good ship Nereus to Holiday Harbor in San Pedro. With a deep sigh, it’s time to wave goodbye. While this is the end of my 20+ years aboard Nereus, it’s not the end of my adventures. It’s still in its infancy, but […]
I’m proud to announce Nereus has a new owner and I’m very pleased! I’m honored to introduce Jeff Freeman as the new Captain of Nereus. He’ll be taking Nereus back to the Port of LA this weekend. It has been a long dream of his to own a Westsail and he’ll be back in good […]
We are moving on to other things and have slashed the price of our beloved Nereus to $25,000. Call Charlotte Schmidt today at (805) 377-7430 before it’s gone!
If you are interested in a Westsail 32 that’s been there and has all the part, contact Charlotte Schmidt at (805) 644-3100. Btw, we just put a new cutlass bearing in it, replaced the shaft log, and did a bottom job. Other projects

It is with great pomp & circumstance that we announce that we will be putting our beloved Nereus on the market. I’ve had Nereus for almost 20 years. I’ve cruised. Ive lived aboard. I’ve sailed. But it’s time to send Nereus on an adventure with a new captain. If you know anyone looking for a sturdy, well-equipped, cruise-ready […]
A casual rendezvous in Two Harbors, Catalina. We had four boats: Summer Wind (W32), TLC (W32) from Dana Point, Adel (W28) and us. Good times!
It’s been a while since I posted, but that doesn’t mean nothing has been happening about the good ship Nereus. Last reported, I was installing the new boomkin with arch. That went well. Upon completion, I had to revisit the new bowsprit. When I installed that, the riser I built was about a half inch […]
Quietly closing out 2016 in my most favorite of all places: aboard my good ship Nereus. Perfectly content — it’s been a great week aboard. While many have argued 2016 had been a difficult year — and I would not disagree in principle — this is the year Nereus began sailing for fun again. Also, we’ve […]
Last time we were out sailing, I had noticed some movement in the boomkim under load. After 43 years of service, I decided the old Apitong wooden boomkin needed to go. It served it’s purpose admirably, but needed to be replaced with a new kind of wood. Good thing too, because as I went to […]
