Water and wilderness are the fuels of life for Jon. He has logged over 300,000 miles on the ocean and has paddled thousands of miles by canoe on rivers and lakes in Canada.
He and his mate Sara live on Moya, a 36-foot sailboat. They have circumnavigated the planet on Moya and now spend their time on the west coast of British Columbia.
The ‘lost’ logbooks from Ancestor recently re-appeared and prompted Jon to share this carefree adventure with other sailors.
