Hi! We are Jay and Cookie and we are from New Braunfels, TX. After years of planning and researching, we just purchased our first sail boat...a 2018 FP Lucia 40!
Jay is retired, but had a career as a journeyman electrician before he moved into IT and became a Cisco certified network engineer & instructor with an MCSE and many other certifications. (Jay likes certificates.). After retirement, he owned a woodworking business that made custom armed forces flags, treasure boxes and many other creations that we sold at an Art Galley and vendor markets. Jay loves restoring old cars and rebuilt a 1970 Ford Mustang named Penny.
Cookie has worked in finance and accounting for 25+ years and is also a professional photographer. She loves animals and all things crafting, especially crochet,
Jay and Cookie sail with their two cats and two dogs...Oscar (14), Cheddar (11), Andy (6) and Scout (3).
We look forward to sailing and many new adventures!

Our logo was designed by Julie Riley at https://www.jrileycreative.com. She did an amazing job getting our wish list into this visual!
The outer ring of our logo serves as both a cross and a compass to signify our Christian beliefs and how they guide and navigate us in our travels no matter which direction we are headed.
The sea turtle incorporates a catamaran and sail, waves of the ocean and most importantly represents our desire to explore the oceans and new destinations.
I'll never forget the first time I saw a sea turtle in the wild. I was snorkeling off the coast of Cozumel, Mexico and I have been fascinated with them ever since. They way they glide through the water is just a beautiful sight to see.
