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 […]
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 […]
After Nereus had spent so much time in not-so-dry storage in Alabama, dry rot had set and the forward bulkhead completely delaminated. It’s a project I’ve been putting off, but the time has come to fix it. I removed the old bulkhead (not too hard as it came out in pieces) and am working up […]
A lot has been happened aboard Nereus. First, we’ve moved back to Yacht Haven, and as such are back in the Port of Los Angeles. Things at our marina in Marina Del Rey began deteriorating quickly and my daughter wasn’t coming to the boat much any more, so I decided to go back where the bathrooms are […]
The boat is looking great! Painting is almost finished. Today I begin putting deck hardware back on.
Boat is really coming along nicely. We will begin putting deck hardware back on next trip. Of course, the deck lights I wired up on the spreaders really extends our working time!
Is it possible I spend too much time & money at West Marine? I had a stacck of WestAdvantage Reward coupons, so I went in there and bought some stuff. Tab came to $73 (pretty cheap for West Marine, I’d say). I handed the cashier my coupons and she asked for $3. Really? I had […]
